Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Dumbledore's Niece ❯ hogwarts here they come ( Chapter 2 )
~* Hogwarts, Here They Come *~
"Hey! Harry, did you hear!?" yelled a orange-haired, freckled student.
"What?" asked the boy. They were walking down the corridors of Hogwarts and towards the Great Hall, where they were about to eat dinner.
"New students!"
"New students? Didn't the school year just start?"
Ron shrugged. "Let's hurry up. They're going to be sorted and I don't want to miss it. I hope we can meet them before Malfoy rots their brains."
In the Great Hall, the students were buzzing like bees, talking about the new students and how they would act like. It wasn't every day that Hogwarts had new students. There was something that they were all wondering. What house was the Sorting Hat going to place them into? Everyone except the Slytherin, were hoping that they would not be placed in the Slytherin's.
"Hush! Hush!" shushed Professor McGonagall.
Everyone quietly calmed down and let Professor Snape talk.
"Students," he said in his usually cold voice, "As you may or may have not hear, new students have arrived today. They should be here any minute."
"Here we are, here we are," said Professor Dumbledore, appearing in the Great Hall.
Following him were eleven teenagers and a child, who was being carried by one of the teens. Boys and girls from the houses gaped at the students following Dumbledore. Once they arrived at the teachers' table, McGonagall put out the Sorting Hat. The scouts lined up in a group and faced towards the houses.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like for all of you to please welcome these new students," he finally said.
Everyone in the Great Hall clapped very loudly for them. Many eyes were on Serena and the others.
"Let us proceed to the sorting," he said.
"Aino, Mina! 1st year!" cried McGonagall. Every boys' eyes in the Great Hall were on Mina, since she was the scout of love and beauty. But they didn't need to know that. She placed the hat on and the hat replied, "Gryffindor!!"
"Hino Raye! 1st year!" Raye sat on the stool and McGonagall placed the hat on her head. "Gryffindor!"
"Kaiou Michiru! 3rd year!" All the older boys watched Michiru walk up to the stool. "Gryffindor!!"
"Kino, Lita! 1st year!" shouted McGonagall. Lita stepped up and walked towards the Sorting Hat. She placed it on her head and almost immediately, it shouted, "Gryffindor!"
"Mizuno Amy! 1st year!" She slowly walked towards the stool. Amy was nervous and didn't want to be place in a different house than her friends. "Gryffindor!" She sighed with relief.
"Shields Arina! 1st year!" Arina ran towards the stool and eagerly placed the hat on her head. Immediately, it said, "Gryffindor!!"
"Shields Darien!" All the girls gawked at him. "4th year!" He walked calmly towards the stool, unlike Arina. "Gryffindor!"
Everyone stared talking at once. So far, Gryffindor had gotten seven out of eleven of the new students. "Smith Samantha!!"
"Call me Sam!!" she cried, running, as Arina had, to the table, "Samantha sounds so dull!!"
"Alright, as you wish. Smith Sam! 1st year!" She placed the hat on excitedly.
"Gryffindor!" Eight out of eleven.
"Tenou Haruka!! 3rd year!"
"Gryffindor!!" Nine out of eleven.
"Tsukino Serena! 1st year!" Instead of running, like Arina and Sam, she skipped happily towards the stool and sat. "Gryffindor!!" Ten out of eleven. They could hear groans from three of the houses because the Gryffindors might get all of the students.
"Tomoe Hotaru!" No one came up.
Instead, Uni went up and told her, "Hotaru is a baby. I hope you do not expect her attend this school."
"Oh. Really? There must be a mistake."
"Never mind that, Professor McGonagall. You may go on," said Dumbledore.
"There is no one else on this list, headmaster."
"Why, there really must be a mistake," chuckled Dumbledore. "Uni is still left. Go, Uni, go and get yourself sorted."
"…" Uni did as she was told. She took her time getting to the stool, however. Once she sat down, she placed the hat on her head. It seemed to take longer time with deciding where to put her then it did on the other scouts.
'You are a difficult one indeed. You have the heart of a warrior, but you also had the heart of evil.'
"What's so difficult about putting me in a house?" she demanded (though not aloud). "Just pick one!!"
'Hmm…as you wish…Slytherin!!"
The Gryffindor cheered. They might have not gotten all the new students, but at least they got everyone except one. The Slytherin just mumbled.
Professor Dumbledore stood up and everyone fell silent. "Now, before we begin our feast. ("Did he say feast?" said Serena to Arina, who just giggled.) I would like to introduce you Setsuna Meiou. Those who would like to take Muggles Studies, which is the class she will teach, will have to meet with their house leaders. Now, let us eat our dinner. Those of you who have been assigned to Gryffindor, your tables are over there. Uni, yours is right a-"
Before he could finish, Professor Quirrell appeared bursting into the hallway. He ran up towards the teacher's table and scouts. Heaving and puffing, he finally said, "So sorry interrupting your Sorting Ceremony. Though you ought to know, there's a troll in the dungeon. Mountain troll." Then he passed out right there in the hall.
All the students in the Great Hall stood up and screamed in panic. The scouts looked around, confused and Hotaru, who was being carried by Setsuna started to cry.
":What's to panic about?" shouted Serena over the noise, "Aren't trolls small?"
"Trolls in this world are not small like you have read in fairy tales," replied Uni. "Trolls, especially mountain trolls, are dangerous as they come."
"How do you know all that?" cried Haruka.
"I have been in this world before. It will all be explained later."
"SILENCE!" shouted Dumbledore loudly over the noise. Everyone quieted down and looked at the headmaster. "Prefects, lead your Houses back into their dormitories immediately and as quietly as possible."
The house prefects quickly rounded up their classmates and leaded towards their towers. Uni turned towards Dumbledore after the other teacher had quickly exited to find the troll.
"What shall we do, uncle?" she asked.
"You should find Harry and his friend. I believe they will run into the troll," he replied, "Ms. Meiou, you can come up to my office and calm little Hotaru down."
"Yes, sir," she said.
"I can't believe we have to fight on our first day!" whined Mina.
"Well it is our job and why we have been called down here for," said Haruka.
"What are we waiting for? Let's---Wait a minute!" cried Darien, "Did you just call him uncle?"
Uni nodded in reply. "He's your uncle? Since when?" questioned all the scouts together.
She sighed and said, "Did you not hear me? All will be explained later. Now transform, we must stop that troll from hurting anyone. Universe Power!"
"Sheesh! StarLight Power!"
"She's in a hurry. Quasar Power!!"
"I don't wanna fight! Moon Cosmic Power!!"
"Quit complaining. Uranus Planet Power!"
"Neptune Planet Power!!"
"Mercury Planet Power!"
"Mars Planet Power!!"
"Jupiter Planet Power!!"
"Venus Planet Power!!"
Colored light covered the scouts as they transformed into their scout form. Serena in mixed-color light, Amy in aquamarine, Mina in orange, Raye in red, Lita, in green, Michiru in blue, Haruka in gold, Arina in white light, Sam in gray, and Uni in black. Once they were done, they were sailor scouts instead of students.
"Spread out and find that Harry," ordered Universe.
"It's better if we split into groups, no?" asked Mars.
"Yes, we don't know what we are dealing with," agreed Mercury.
"You do not, but I do. Mountain trolls are powerful and strong, but they are not all in the brains," said Sailor Universe. "But just in case. Uranus and Neptune go together. Mars and Venus, and Jupiter and Mercury. StarLight, you're with me. Quasar go with Sailor Moon."
"Ill stay with Setsuna," said Darien.
"Let's go!" cried Venus.
They ran out of the Great Hall and split up with their partners towards different end of the school.
"Make sure you are not seen if you can help it!" shouted Universe before they all disappeared.
Her and StarLight were running in the hallway silently, but fast. "Where are we going?" asked Sailor StarLight. "You seem to know where to go?"
"That is because I think I do. The girls' bathroom is where they are, I think." They turned around a corner and ran up towards the door. The two scouts could hear crashing and wood splitting on the other side.
"You're good, real good," said StarLight. She looked towards Universe and asked, "You ready?"
"Of course. Psychic Blast!!" She blasted the door open and saw the troll looking towards them with its big club. "We do this fast and then get out!"
"Who-" started Harry. But Sailor StarLight cut him off.
"Righto! StarLight Flash!!" The light blinded the troll.
"Get those three out of here, while I take care of that mountain troll."
"Got it! Hey! Harry!! You and your two friends come over here, quickly!"
"Right," said Harry, "Oy! Ron, Hermione, lets go!" A freckled face boy and a frizzy hair girl did as they were told, and ran towards the Scout of Light.
The troll swung its giant club towards Universe, but she did a back flip to avoid it. It swung again and she slid to the side. "Stupid troll," she mumbled, "Dark Shadow!" The blast knocked over the troll. "Let's go, the teachers are coming. "
"Got it covered! See ya later, peeps! Light Orb Burst!!" The troll stood up but feel again as the small orb of light knocked into it.
"Shadow Blast!"
"StarLight Flash!" Once the light show ended, the scouts were gone. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were left with a knocked out troll on the floor.
"What in the world happened here/" asked Professor McGonagall. She was followed by Professor Quirrell and Snape.
"Umm…I'm not exactly sure," said Harry. He looked at Snape and saw his leg had been mangled. Snape saw Harry look at his leg and he smoothed out his robe so that his leg would be fully covered.
"Humph…you do know that I will have to report this to Professor Dumbledore. What are you three doing here anyways?" asked McGonagall. "You were suppose to be in your dormitories."
"Well…uhh…" stuttered Ron, trying to think of an excuse.
"It's my fault, Professor," said Hermione, quickly. "I thought I could take the troll on since I knew so much about it. If Harry and Ron hadn't come, I don't know what would've happen. I suppose those girls would have rescued me."
"What girls are you talking about?"
"They must have passed you when they left. Didn't they?" asked Hermione.
"We saw no one," sneered Snape.
"But, they were here," said Harry, "They defeated the troll. Well knocked him out anyways."
"Hmm…Well, for your foolishness Miss Granger, there will be a five point demerit." Hermione hanged her head. "Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasly, you are awarded five points…each. Now get back to your dormitories, all of you before I change my mind."
"Yes, ma'am!!" The three quickly ran out of the room and towards the dormitories.
"I wonder who those girls were," she said to Snape and Quirrell.
"Y-yes, ma-make you w-wonder. N-n-no?" stuttered Quirrell. Snape and McGonagall exited the rook leaving Quirrell alone. His eyes shined with hatred then. "Silly scouts," he said, his voice clearly not his own, "How dare they interfere!!!"
"That was fast," remarked Darien. The scouts were in Dumbledore's office, after they heard that Universe and StarLight had taken control of the situation.
Uni shrugged. "What can I say? I'm fast."
"Yeeeeep. She found Harry and them easily," said Arina.
Everyone looked at her. She shrugged again and said, "What can I say? I have sixth sense."
"Well, so do I, but I didn't find them," said Raye.
Uni shrugged once again and repeated, "What can I say?"
"So what's this about the headmaster being your uncle?" asked Haruka.
"Yeah, you never said anything about that," remarked Lita.
"No one asked," she replied, petting Fawks, Dumbledore's phoenix. Everyone sweatdropped as she said it.
"How were we suppose to ask if we never knew?" said Raye. The only reply was a shrug from Uni.
"I don't get it though," said Amy, "How can you be a witch if your parents weren't?"
"Ahh," said Dumbledore stepping up, "Her father may not be a warlock, but her mother is. You see, she is my sister."
"How come you never told me that?" asked Darien to Uni.
"Never asked." He fell down to her reply.
Dumbledore chuckled. "You haven't changed a bit Uni."
"Except the fact that I am a sailor scout," she said.
"Yes, indeed, except that. Her father isn't a witch, I believe. That makes Uni a half-witch, no?" Uni nodded.
"After mother married father, she began to forget that she was a witch. She had forgotten about magic and her brother knew that. So whenever he came to visit her, he would act like a normal muggle. A couple years ago, he told me about this world and began to teach me things. I only know little."
"What is muggle, anyways?" asked Mina.
"Muggle is what you call non-magic people," replied Dumbledore.
"There are a lot of words that you wouldn't normally use," said Uni.
"Yes, but you will learn," said the headmaster. He looked out the window. "It is late. All of you need your sleep. Go to your dormitories and rest. Tomorrow you have class."
Serena, Mina, Arina, and Sam groaned loudly. "I don't wanna go to school!" whined Serena.
"Umm…Serena, you are in school," said Darien.
"I know that," she shrieked.
"Stop your yelling, Serena!" Raye said.
"Don't tell me what to do!"
"Serena, you are so immature!!"
"Oh, be quiet," said Uni. "I'm going to sleep." She left the room silently.
"Maybe we should go too," said Michiru.
"Yeah. Question is…where's our dormitories?" said Haruka.
"And mine," said Setsuna.
"I will show you all where they are. Here are your schedule," said Dumbledore. He handed each scouts a piece of paper. "I will have one of the Slytherins give this to Uni. Follow me."
