So I'm gonna make a poll to see if later on in the series I should do Nalu or Stilu because currently Stilu is a go. I'm pretty sure that Wizards and Mages is more popular than Soulless right now… I don't blame you. By the way I don't do lemons since I'm technically still a child. Credit to Sofia, review me plz if you want a Q&A. Soulless will be on pause for the time being. I was thinking if I should still do P. or just do a narrator. I will not be posting any fanfictions this weekend due to visiting friends so I will probably post on before the weekend.

THE LESSONS Chapter 6 REWRITTEN
I was all ready for bed, but I wanted to ask Hermione a question that has been bugging me for a while since we got here.
'Hey Hermione, can I ask you something?' She looked up from her book to tell me that she was listening, 'why does Malfoy hate Harry so much?' She sighed and placed her book on the bed stand next to her.
'It is probably because Harry turned Malfoy down and possibly envies Harry. Also he is a Malfoy and since they are pure bloods, they always think they are above everyone else. Not all pure bloods are bad but most of them are and they are in Slytherin, I wouldn't want cause any trouble for him.'
'Why?'
'Because his father has a high rank in the Ministry of Magic plus his dad used to associate with the Dark Lord You-Know-Who.' I didn't bother asking who the Dark Lord is since I already knew, I thought hard on that answer, if Malfoy was a part of the Dark Lord. That's when I realized something, what if…
'Hey are you okay?' I snapped out of my thoughts and turned my attention to my roommate Lavender Brown who had a concerned look on her face. I shook my head.
'So what do we have tomorrow?' I asked them. Parvati took out a piece of paper which I guessed to be our schedule for the year.
'Well after breakfast we first have Charms, next Transfiguration, and then DADA and before lunch we have Potions, then Healing classes.' Parvati said.
'Healing classes? You mean the one with Professor Marvel?' Romilda Vane asked Parvati.
'Yep, then after that Summonings.' I gulped when she said Summonings; just thinking about it gives me the chills down my spine.
'Well goodnight guys.' Hermione said tucking herself in.
'Goodnight.' We all replied and dozed off.
The next morning…
When I walked into the Great Hall I was greeted by familiar faces.
'Hey Reese, can you come over here for a second?' I saw Natsu with the others sitting on the same table; I looked over at Lucy and Loke with an uncomfortable look on their face. I sighed; sooner or later we knew we had to face them again. I walked over to Natsu and slammed my books against the table making everyone face me and Natsu.
'Natsu if this is about some pointless fight you had with one of the guys, I swear that I will bust your head open.' I growled. He gulped and was about to speak until Gray interrupted him and knocked him out cold before he could interject.
'Is this a normal thing between them, if so they have a really weird way of talking to each other?' Harry asked Ron.
'Why are you asking me?' Ron exclaimed. Gray turned around and glared at them which made them stop whispering to each other and made them carry on eating their breakfast.
'Before you hear what flame brain gotta say I suggest you hear me out first, Master said that after dinner we should head to the meeting point.' Gray said while Lucy looked confused.
'But where exactly is the Room of-' Loke covered her mouth before she could say anything else, then she understood the reason why he covered her mouth and signalled him to unhand her. 'I mean the meeting point?' I relaxed a little, if anyone found out our meeting place or our secret, well I like to think that would never. I received another chill down my spine while looked at me with concern.
'Are you okay, it not cold in here.' I nodded my head and started to eat breakfast. Something tells me that Dumbledore is hiding one of his own secrets to himself, as the pillar of secrets it made me suspicious of him.
'There is a painting near the back entrance, just say the guild you're in and she will let you in.' Gray finished as he got up and started to walk towards Hufflepuff along with Loke. Before he could be out of arm's reach, I grabbed him.
'What does Gray mean by 'she'?' He smiled.
'Well let's just say you will be seeing your auntie.' Then he followed Susan's waving hand and sat next to her. I looked over to Lucy.
'I suggest you should go back to the Ravenclaw table before Erz- I mean Professor Scarlett deducts points from you.' She nodded and quickly sat next to Cho and started a conversation with her. Then I spun around and saw Natsu waking up from his punch from Gray, I grabbed his shirt and looked at Natsu in the eye. 'And you better behave yourself or else.' He nodded understanding my threat and started to stuff his face with bacon and sausages. Hermione stared at him, trying to process how big he ate.
'He has an even bigger appetite then Ron, and that is not a compliment.' She stated and I just laughed.
'Trust me I have seen worse.' On that queue the bell (A/N: I didn't know if they had a bell or not) rang and students started to leave and get ready for the next lesson.
'I hate these uniforms; they make me look like Zeref when he went to school.' He whined.
'Who is Zeref?' Me and Natsu jumped by this sudden new voice only to be found by Hermione. I forgot she was behind us. I'm just glad that we didn't talk about other stuff.
'Gosh Hermione you scared us, Zeref is just my big brother.'
'Is he a wizard to, if so did he go to Hogwarts?' Hermione bombarded him with questions. Natsu was sweating badly, he didn't know any wizarding schools except for Hogwarts since Dumbledore. Fortunately for him I knew every single wizarding school and I knew the perfect one for my uncle. I put my hand on her shoulder.
'Actually Hermione he is a wizard but he goes to Baba Yaga University of Magic.' Right when I said that name she frowned.
'That's a Dark Arts School.' Then she looked at him, 'I'm surprised you didn't get submitted, that mean your brother is a dark wizard.' Natsu chuckled nervously. Since Zeref was an actually Dark mage and Natsu was his brother, he is also E.N.D. We carried on talking about the schools until we reached Charms.
Charms Narrator P.O.V
When they entered the classroom, they saw Gryffindor and Slytherin in the same room together arguing with each other (A/N: I couldn't do the other houses in here for a specific reason), 'Hey Gajeel.'
'Sup.' That's when Draco decided to steal him away.
'See that girl over there.' He pointed at Reese. 'I want you to kick her out of that seat since that seat is only for the best and I'm the best. Wouldn't want to defy me now do you? ' Gajeel sweated dropped, if he did that who knows what Reese would do to him. Plus he heard from his classmates that his father used to be associates with You-Know-Who and needs to get his trust. They both heard a scraping noise near them and saw Reese standing up.
'If you wanted the seat you could have asked nicely.' He cautiously stood up and started to walk over there but once again got stopped again. 'But if you ever threaten your friends to do your dirty work in front of me, you'll be begging for mercy. This is only a warning the next time is the real thing.' She growled and marched over Draco's previous seat and sat down. Natsu and Gajeel winced and felt bad for him. The shots have already been fired, if they hit Draco he is done for. 'Is he always like this with everyone?' She asked Harry as he nodded.
'I'm afraid so.' Then saw the deadly look on her face. Professor Flitwick entered the lesson and started to begin the lesson
Human Transfiguration
'Hey Lucy, how are you?' She ignored him and sat next to Loke. He pulled down his hand.
'Is she always like that with you?' Susan asked. He shook his head.
'There used to be a time where me, her, Loke, Reese and every one of the new student that arrived with us used to be friends, then…' Susan was even more curious. Before she could ask him to tell her the rest of the story, Professor Strauss walked.
'Hello everybody if you didn't know my name is Mirajane Strauss but you will call me Professor Strauss, now let us begin the basics of human transfiguration.' And then she started explaining its uses and possibilities. Susan kept on staring at Gray which kept distracting him.
'Hey Susan'
'Yeah?'
'Could you stop staring at me please, you're distracting me.' Gray said and Susan blushed. Even though she knew that Gray had already been taken, she couldn't help but try and steal him away. Justin from a distance, felt a bit jealous seeing that Gray was taking all the attention and he didn't see that she had a crush on him.
'Now there are 5 types of Human Transformation spells. The first one is called Animal Soul, this lets you transform into animal and use their animal soul for example, say if a person used the soul of a eagle not only will it allow them to transform into an eagle but it also lets you use its wings while maintaining a human body.' Everyone took notes even Lucy. 'The second one is called Beast Soul, now this take over magic can only be used with one arm and can only obtain different forms when killing monsters. But if you do a full body beast take over, you will lose control and kill the ones you love.' This reminded Gray and Mirajane (except Loke since he lost his memories) what happened to Lucy when Elfman used full beast transformation on a job and 'killed' Lucy, Natsu had seriously changed after that he even started to read. People started spread rumors about how the world was going to end soon. Mira's eyes darken and the class seemed to notice this strange reaction, but didn't notice the uncomfortable look on Lucy or the guilty expression on Gray's face. That is when one of the students decided to be brave.
'Miss, are you okay?' Mira lifted up her head to see that everyone in her class had a concerned look on their face.
'No don't worry I'm fine, now lets carry on the lesson. The third one is called Human Transformation, this allows you to shape shift into other people and is also mostly known, next lesson we will do a practical on this so I hope you we were listening on the basics.' Susan froze; sure she took notes but not a lot and only was about its origin. Maybe she could ask Hannah.
'The forth one is called Satan Soul Magic, I use this magic.' Everyone froze; the name of this magic was just enough information to know that she could be scary. Lucy, Loke and Gray felt sorry for these students will have to gaze upon the She-Devil. A dark light surrounded their professor and started to feel scared; when the purple smoke disappeared it revealed a demon with crocodile hands and tail. The students screamed and ducked under the desk for cover except for Lucy, Loke and Gray. Luckily their classmates didn't notice that they weren't cowering for their lives, Mirajane returned to her human form and began to explain her magic. 'My magic allows me to turn into a demon and control demons; it also has several different forms and is considered one of the most powerful magic. The reason why this magic is called Satan Soul is because it is actually the transformation of the She=Devil or also known as Satan's wife.' All the students were freaked out by Professor Strauss transformation, how can a nice young lady turn into a monstrous and scary demon… maybe that's why she is in Slytherin her class thought. Not to mention her sneaky matchmaking skills.
'The last one is Slayer Transformation.' Most of the students were confused or either curious at this particular transformation, 'There are things such as demon slayers or dragon slayers, did you know that one of your teachers is a dragon slayer?' Now this caught their attention, everyone was whispering who was this mysterious dragon slayer. 'Settle down now children, now the Slayer Transformation only happens when they enter Slayer Force for example, if you were a dragon slayer would go into Dragon Force and turn into a dragon 50% but a Demon Slayer and a God Slayer are a bit different. They have a mark on their arm and their appearance also changes; Pillar Slayer and Titan Slayer have a tattoo on their whole arm up to their neck depending on what they are. Now phoenix slayers are the interesting ones.' Lucy nudged Loke. 'The way they gain power is by receiving the element they are and contain it through so that way they can achieve Phoenix Force, when they do they receive phoenix wings and have a few feathers on their face and been gifted the gift to heal poison from their tear like a regular phoenix.' The bell rang meaning the next lesson. 'No homework for this lesson but please read over your notes for next lesson practical.' She smiled.
DADA (they are going to be a bit short so…)
'S-settle d-d-down c-children, its t-time to s-s-tart the lesson.' Professor Quirrel said then turned to face the board.
'Poor Professor Quirrel he needs to handle Natsu.' Lucy said sighing, Reese agreed.
'Plus this place reeks of garlic, did he say he met vampires and received the turban by the prince of the country?' Ron stated while muttering under his breath that he would have to take another shower. Reese looked suspiciously at the stuttering teacher who was trying to teach the class.
'This guy smells like a liar.' She glared at their teacher.
'Uh Reese I don't mean to be rude but I think your wrong since you're probably smelling the garlic to repel the vampires, if I was there I would of roasted those vamps. Just thinking about makes me all fired up!' Natsu said, budging into their conversation. They forgot that Natsu was just beside them and had dragon hearing.
'Would y-you f-four like to s-share y-your most interesting c-conversation w-with the c-class?' They shook their heads then returned back to the lesson.
'And don't say that I'm a bad thing.' He said. They all glared at him.
'Natsu, Professor McGonagall had to take away ten points from you each time Draco tried to bullied Harry. You would always punch him in the stomach.'
'Well yeah what did you expect me to do, plus you obviously were paying too much attention on the lesson.'
'Uh because maybe I want to get good scores to get to the next year, Natsu you baka.' She said putting her head in her hands.
'You two p-please pay a-attention.' Then carried on teaching the class in his garlic infected classroom.
Lunch
'So Ron, I heard you have several brothers, am I correct?' Reese asked Ron and he nodded.
'Well my older brother Charlie is in Romania working on dragons-' before he could finish his sentence Natsu cut him off.
'DRAGONS?!' He said with an excited look in his eye. When Natsu shouted out dragons, immediately Gajeel and Wendy wanted to run to Natsu side and hear all the details. But Gajeel couldn't go because he was in Gryffindor and he was in Slytherin so he had to stay put and listen to Draco's blabbering, maybe I can hear their little chit chat with my dragon hearing, i must get away from this prick (referring to Draco) he thought. Wendy had to uphold her duty as a Hogwarts teacher though she had a plan and was going to put it in action.
'Yep, you look like you're really interested in dragons, can I ask why?' Ron asked Natsu. Reese as afraid that Natsu would blow their cover just by talking about Igneel, maybe she should stop him before it as too late.
'Its because there is a dragon called Igneel' Too late, 'whose my f-'
'Natsu please lower down you voice.' Wendy said as she walked past them, Reese relaxed a little, silently thanking Wendy. To their relief Natsu didn't finish his sentence since he obviously realized his mistake and Ron forgotten about it. As Ron explained all the dragons to Natsu the bell rang meaning the next lesson.
Healing
'WHAT YOU LOOKING AT STRIPERELLA?'
'THE HELL YOU SAY DRAGON BREATH!'
'WATCH YOU MOUTH BLIZZARD BEACH!'
'Enough boys please sit down or I will deduct points from you.' That made them shut up.
'Welcome to Healing class, my name is Professor Marvel and if you didn't hear from Professor Strauss I am a sky dragon slayer.' Everyone jaws dropped to the ground, 'This lets me use Healing magic and support magic. It allows me to heal others but not myself, now let me show you an example.' She brought Carla up on her desk and everyone gasped at the slightly scratched cat. 'Carla accidently fell into a thorn bush and I thought I could use it for this lesson, but do not worry it's not infected.' That wasn't all a complete lie, you see she did get scratched on accident but it was in Hagrid's hut and made by Fang, Hagrid's dog. 'Now come close so you can see the healing in action.' They gathered around Wendy to see the healing up close, they felt a calm aura from Wendy and saw a faint glowing light surrounding Carla making the scratch fade away, 'There now- Mr Fullbuster.'
'Yes Professor Marvel.'
'Please put your clothes on.' When he looked down he only saw his boxers on and his uniform as nowhere to be seen. He let out a panicked yell and began his search for his clothes and found it behind a snickering Natsu, as they got into an argument Loke interfered and hit them both on the head to make them stop. This gave the students the chance to chat a little, 'Right now stop this gossiping and let us carry on the lesson.' As they started practising healing birds with broken wings.
Potions
Potion lessons took place in one of the dungeons; it was colder down here than the rest of the castle and would have been less creepy without the pickled animals floating around the classroom. Everyone knew that Snape favoured Slytherin than the rest of the houses so that meant that Slytherin would get better scores than everyone else. Snape started the class by taking down the register and paused at Harry's name.
'Ah, yes,' he said softly, 'Harry Potter, Our new- celebrity .' Draco and the rest of his friends sniggered behind their hands except Gajeel. When he finished calling out the register he looked up at the class, his eyes were black like Hagrid's but had none of this warmth and instead were cold and empty. 'You are here to learn the subtle science and exact art of potion-making,' Snape had a way of keeping the class quiet without any effort.
'As there is little foolish wand waving in here, many of you will hardly believe this magic. I don't expect you to really understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with its shimmering fumes, the delicate power of liquids that creep through the human veins, bewitching the mind, ensnaring the senses… I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory even stop death- if you weren't a bunch of dunderheads that I usually have to teach.'
More silence followed this speech. Harry and Ron exchanged looks with each other; Hermione was on the edge of her seat looking desperate to prove that she wasn't a dunderhead; Reese felt quite offended and decided to embarrass this arrogant teacher; Natsu didn't catch anything in the speech and Gajeel didn't care at all.
'Potter!' Snape said suddenly. 'What would I get if I added powered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?' Harry was stumped, he looked to Ron who was also stumped and Hermione's hand shot up.
'I don't know sir, why don't you ask Hermione sir.' Snape's lips turned into a sneer.
'Tut tut- fame isn't everything and you must not depend on your friends Potter, I asked you not Miss Granger. For your information those to ingredients would make a sleeping potion that would be so powerful it would known as the Draught of Living Dead.' He turned to Natsu, 'Let's see if your friend knows the answer for this question, tell me Mr Dragneel where would you find me a bezoar?' Natsu didn't have the faintest idea of what was a bezoar since he wasn't even from this world. 'No, well then bezoar is a stone that is taken from the stomach of a goat that will save you from most poisons. What about you Miss Amolo what is the difference between monkshood and wolfsbane?' Unlike the rest of the Gryffindor she was smiling.
'I would be glad to Professor Snape, they are the same plant which also goes by the name aconite.' She said smugly. This shocked everyone including Snape, little did the rest of her classmates knew that she went to Hogwarts 5 years ago and still remembers all of it (she is currently 17), Gajeel had to admit he was impressed by Reese. Snape cleared his throat.
'Correct, I award 1 point to Gryffindor for her knowledge.' Everyone smiled at Reese, 'But I take way 1 point from Gryffindor for Mr Potter's cheek, well what are you of waiting for, Christmas? Write these formulas down.'
Summonings
'So how was Potions and where is Neville?' Lucy asked Reese, she sighed.
'Terrible and Neville is up in the hospital wing since he spilled his potion in Potions. Seriously Snape hates Gryffindor, especially Harry he took off 2 points him and he did nothing. I am just glad that we didn't have to spend another period in that hell hole.' They couldn't help but pity Harry.
'I have to agree, when you had Healing we had Potions and he was mean to but he didn't take points off us,' She whispered into Reese's ear, 'he also said just because me Loke and Gray that just because we were 'special students' does not mean we could lay back and relax.'
'Speaking of Potions how did you the answer for the third question?' Harry asked Reese who was on the desk beside her and did not hear Lucy's last sentence.
'Remember I said that I went to Hogwarts last year, plus I do my research unlike some people I know.' She said in a mocking tone.
'Alright class settle down class, as you already know my name is Professor Scarlett your new Summonings teacher. I will get straight to the point. There are 3 types of summoning, 1) To summon basic weapons or objects.' She held her hand up and summon one of her Heaven's Wheel sword. 'With this summoning you can summon any weapon to your side if you lose your wand in battle. 2) To change your attire into armour.' She shouted out to requipp and transformed into her Heart Kreuz Armour (without the Fairy Tail sign) and amazed everyone. 'With this it can increase your speed and strength; it also allows you to do different attacks, to achieve different armours you either release your second origin or to find one.' She requipped back into her teacher uniform, 'The third one I cannot do because I do not have the required equipment.' Everyone was confused.
'But you're the Summonings teacher.'
'Yes I am but I need specific items to accomplish this.' Lucy straightened herself and smiled, she knew that Titania was talking about her magic. 'You see you need something called Celestial Keys, there are 4 types of keys:
The 12 Zodiac Keys, you also know this as the 'horoscopes', these are gold keys and the leader of the Zodiac Keys is Leo the Lion.' Natsu, Lucy and Reese thought about Loke and his amnesia, 'These keys are extremely rare. There is also the thirteenth zodiac Ophiuchus the snake charmer.
The silver keys are the normal constellations like the Great Cross or the Great Dog, now all though they aren't gold keys they are helpful in their own way.
The bronze keys are the newly made constellations and made by the pillar of stars or also known as the princess of the Celestial King. Some people think they are the Platinum keys but are deeply wrong, ' Reese knew she was talking about her since she was the daughter of the… oh never mind I still don't want to tell you.
'And then the finally one is the white gold key. I think you noticed that I said key meaning singular, well the reason why is because that key is the key of the princess of the stars.' Lucy nudged Reese as she took out Reese's key which was white gold. 'Now you're probably why I am explaining all the keys, well there is a dress called a Stardress which changes your whole attire and turns it to a similar clothing as your celestial spirit which also gives you the same strength and power as the spirit. Now I suggest you will not look for these keys because if you cannot handle you would die from power loss. But if you do find one and control it…' The class leaned closer to their professor, 'You must treat them like friends since they too are also living beings not tools.' The bell rang meaning lessons were over. 'Your homework is to prepare yourself for your next lesson which is training with all the first year houses.'
That is the longest chapter that I have ever wrote, I left you a few hints on who Reese's father but yeah… please read Soulless and leave nice reviews. I won't be posting for a while so yeah
Magkita tayo mamaya, Oo ako Filipino. (translated See you later, yes I am Filipino. This is to my fellow Filipinos)
