Jbh14: Hi guys this is an idea I've had in my head for a while, which is what if one of the Wolkenritter was Harry Potter? Let me know what you think.

Knight of the Lake

Its one of those days again thought Shamal, sadly. Meaning it was gonna be one of those days where she would be continuously reminded of her past, by everything she saw or did. For most this wouldn't be a bad thing but for Shamal it was one of the worst kinds of torture. She had been a guardian knight of the Book of Darkness for decades now and unlike the others she remembered every incarnation, every master, every mission that she had ever been a part of and it hurt, because of all the terrible things she had done for her friends and family. And that wasn't even the worst thing.

Not even close.

She didn't just remember all the book's previous incarnations; she also remembered her life before, before she had become a guardian knight, before she had become Shamal. That was the worst thing; remembering the life she had before and wondering what if. What if she hadn't become a knight, what if she hadn't met the other knights, what if…

What if she hadn't been banished through time to the ancient Belkan era and became a knight of the tome, became a new person and discarded her old memories.

She was broken out of her internal monologue by small, but strong arms wrapping themselves around her waist from behind.

"Shamal are you alright?" asked Hayate Yagami, Shamal's current master and close friend. Hayate had noticed a change in all her knights as of late; it had taken her a while but she had eventually got them to admit to having nightmares of there pasts.

All except Shamal.

Shamal turned to face her fifteen year-old master and nodded. "Of course I'm fine Hayate-Chan you worry too much" smiled Shamal. Hayate frowned she wasn't convinced in the slightest, but she was also worried; out of all of her knights she knew Shamal was the one least likely to even think of lying, especially to her. Well there was of course the time when they had been collecting linker cores, but Hayate knew that Shamal had only lied then to spare her fellow knights the pain of lying to there young mistress.

"Shamal I've known you for six years something is definitely wrong"

"Its nothing Hayate-Chan, I'm perfectly fine" Shamal tried again to reassure her, but her master was being just as stubborn as a certain brunette friend of hers.

"Shamal please, I'm your mistress and your friend you can tell me" pleaded Hayate. Those eyes of hers certainly weren't helping Shamal to say no. Honestly those eyes should be illegal thought Shamal.

"Oh alright I might as well tell you, knowing my luck you'll only find out anyway if I don't" agreed Shamal. Hayate let out a little cheer and dragged her blond knight to couch. The two sat down with Hayate laying her head in Shamal's lap, drawing a small smile from the knight of the lake.

"First of all Hayate have you ever heard of a wizard" asked Shamal. Hoping to god she hadn't as it would give Shamal a few more minutes before she released her darkest secret.

"You mean someone who pulls rabbits out of a hat" Hayate's curious eyes shining up at her cutely. Shamal's lips twitched upwards slightly as she tried desperately not to laugh. If only Malfoy heard that, his reaction would be hilarious thought Shamal.

"No I mean natural born magic users from Earth" answered Shamal. Hayate's eyebrows knitted together in confusion, so Shamal decided to explain before the girl made her lose control completely. "Wizards and Witches are a type of magic user different to mages or knights. They don't use a magic system as such and have a much more varied assortment of spells"

"Like what?" asked Hayate, curiously. Shamal smiled at her mistress's curiosity, before raising her hand and made sure Hayate could see. Willing a small amount of magic into hand, she whispered

"Incendio"

Small flames in her hand appeared; causing Hayate to gasp in shock and Shamal to smile at the look of innocent delight; that was until she heard several gasps from behind her. The flames went out immediately and Shamal spun round, careful not to harm Hayate, and saw Signum, Vita, Zafira and Rein staring at her in shock.

Signum was the first to recover moving swiftly to Shamal's side and grabbing the blond's hand. The knight of the sword examined her friends hand curiously, before looking up at Shamal in confusion. Vita, Zafira and Rein by now had recovered also and had all moved over so they were standing around Shamal and Hayate.

Shamal felt her face heating up, "I'm fine everyone" she insisted.

"Was that wizard magic?" asked Vita, before quickly clamping a hand over her mouth, embarrassed.

Shamal's eyes widened "How much…?" she trailed off as she saw her fellow knights look down in shame. "You were spying on us" realised Shamal.

"We heard everything Shamal" confirmed Signum, looking up at the blond; "We were worried about you"

"Were really sorry, honest" promised Vita, hoping to god Shamal wasn't too mad at them. The blond knight may have been the most gentle out of all of them; but she also had a mischievous side that could be down right evil. And the blond had the uncanny ability of making you feel incredibly guilty with a look.

Zafira nudged Shamal's hand with his snout, to show he too was sorry, whilst Rein merely kept apologising over and over again. Hayate moved her head from Shamal's lap and looked at Klarer Winds master with concern. When the blond started to shake, they all became prepared for the worst; they certainly didn't expect her to start laughing.

Once Shamal recovered somewhat she gave them all a warm smile to show she wasn't actually mad with them. "I suppose I can let it slide just once, but please don't make ease dropping a habit"

"You're not mad" asked Vita hopefully.

"No I'm not mad" Shamal shook her head. Vita cheered and hugged her round the waist, causing Shamal to close her arms around the smaller red head and smiles to appear on the others faces.

"So I guess you all might as well stay for the rest of my story" suggested Shamal.

"You don't mind?" asked Signum, surprised.

"No I was going to tell you all eventually anyway" confessed Shamal.

Everyone quickly moved to get a seat so they could listen to Shamal. Vita decided to take up permanent residence in the blond's lap, whilst Zafira merely sat on the floor. Rein chose to sit on the coffee table and Hayate took the seat next to Shamal. Signum chose to sit in the arm chair to the left of the couch.

"Right well I've told you about wizard magic, so I suppose you're all wondering how I know any, right?" asked Shamal, receiving nods all round she sighed; "Well the reason is I used to be a witch" Shamal closed her eyes waiting for the explosion of shouts of disbelief and anger, but they never came. Opening her eyes she looked at them all in confusion.

"Shamal were not going to be angry with you, because you kept this a secret" Signum looked at her fellow knight sadly; "although I am a little hurt you didn't tell us, I think I understand why" The others all gave nods of agreement.

"Signum's right, although I am curious as to when you became a witch" Hayate looked at the oldest of her knights in confusion.

Shamal tightened her hold on Vita, who didn't seem to mind and hugged back; that was the first part out of the way, now for the second. "Um… well I was a witch before I became a knight" explained Shamal, the last part having come out in barely a whisper.

"You mean you have memories from before we served Reinforce" asked Zafira, curiously and with just a hint of disbelief.

"Just how much do you remember Shamal" asked Vita.

"Everything"

That single word was said with such conviction, that none of them fought for a moment that Shamal could be mistaken. It also explained why Shamal hadn't been at all bothered when the others discovered they were remembering things from before they met Hayate; because she already remembered everything to do with her past.

After a long silence Hayate turned back to Shamal with one question that was bugging her. "So if you were witch before, why or how did you become a knight?"

"Ah well that's a long story" seeing that none of them seemed to have any thought of leaving, Shamal continued "But it starts with a boy named Harry Potter…"

Jbh14: Ah well that's the first chapter, not sure I'll continue this, it will really depend on how many reviews I get and whether people actually like it. For those of you who are going what about Hermione and Ginny, that will all be explained and Shamal/Harry will go back to the wizards eventually. Let me know what you think and how I could improve please. Bye-Bye for now.
