Edit 3/29/20 - There is no new information in this chapter, I am just updating the grammar, spelling and layout a bit!

Shirayuri Potter, known by her friends as Yuri, was tired. She was tired of the Wizarding World and the manipulative bastards that ran it.

See, Yuri had just defeated the most recent Dark Wizard at the age of 19, after 5 drawn out years of war. Well technically it started before she was even born, then there was a hiatus, and then the war started again in earnest when she was 14. But regardless, she was the figurehead and the main target in the second part of the war, and she figured that when it was over, if she was still alive, she would be allowed to live the rest of her life, as she wanted. Which would have been in peace. But thanks to the aforementioned ministry bastards this was not to be.

"Can you believe the gall of those bloody assholes? To think that they would want me to marry THAT GIT they must be barmy! GAH!" Yuri exploded to her two best friends since they were all 11; Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. The three of them were currently in Yuri's bedroom at her house that was given to her by her deceased godfather.

"What are they trying to do now Yuri? Did you say something about marrying someone?" Hermione questioned from beside her fiance of 2 years.

Ron whispered into Hermione's ear, "5 galleons says they are trying to marry her to some pure-blooded family. 3 guesses who and 2 of them don't count."

Understanding lit Hermione's now widened eyes. She glances at Ron and murmurs one word. "Malfoy."

He nods as they continue to let the Girl Who Lived rant and rave, preparing to stop her if she started blowing things up with her magic. Thankfully it did not quite go that far, as after a few minutes she began to visibly calm down, although the twitch in her jaw belied the new found calmness. After a moment of absolute silence, she vehemently stated, "They want me to marry Draco Malfoy. So I saved the git from certain death and we are somewhat friendly; that does not mean that I want to spend the rest of my bleedin' life with him! One of us would be dead before the wedding was even over! And it would most likely be him!"

Her two friends wince in sympathy for her. Ron braved a response, "That's rough mate… Is there any way out of it?"

Emerald eyes flashed with barely contained anger and contempt. "No, those thrice damned idiots managed to finally corner the both of us when we both refused, unsurprisingly. They gave us an ultimatum, either we get married or they would take our titles, money, and whatever else they could think of from us. When the both of us told them to take it and shove it up their arses, not that the Goblins would have stood for it anyways, they hesitated before Fudge rallied the troops and gave us another ultimatum. Either get married or we would both be arrested, me as the next Dark Lady and Draco as my right hand man. Bloody pricks." She raised her hand in front of her face and clenched it into a fist.

Oh how she sometimes missed her wand. After killing Voldemort and fixing her wand with the Elder Wand, both wands merged into one before melding into her skin forming what was essentially a tattoo onto her right wrist. On the top of her wrist were the Japanese symbols, 死の女王 which read "Shi no Jixyoou". Roughly translated, it meant "Mistress of Death". The 'tattoo' was connected with an elaborate twisting design that went the rest of the way around her wrist. The rest of her body was littered with scars as a reminder for the war and what she went through. Thankfully though, her most prominent and hated scar, the lightning bolt on her forehead, faded away shortly after Voldemort's death. Thinking of the battle made her think of those who were lost to her; Remus, Tonks, Dumbledore, Sirius, and many more that she couldn't bear to think of without breaking down. Many more who were too young to have had to face such horrors; Too many to count.

"-ri.. YURI!" Yuri's head jerked to look at Hermione. She huffed and said, "I have been trying to get your attention for a few minutes now." She sighed, "What are we going to do?"

Yuri thought for a moment before an idea came to her. She stood up quickly and looked at her longtime friends with sadness before quietly stating, "I have to leave."

They stood up and Ron clapped her on the back, "Well where are you going to go? Not back to that zoo of a family right? Well wherever it is me an' 'Mione will help you pack and get there, right 'Mione?"

Hermione was the brightest witch of their age (in more than one way) shrewdly looked at her best friend before looking at her dense fiancé. "Ron, I don't think we can follow her this time. What are you thinking, Yuri?"

"Well we have talked about the theory of different dimensions before remember?"

"Er, well, yes, but there is no solid proof."

"Ah-ah, no solid proof according to witches and wizards, but what about the other inhabitants of this world?"

Ron, who thought he had finally caught up, disbelievingly stated, "The muggles found out about different dimensions?"

Yuri laughed before lightly slapping him upside the head, "Really, Ron I worry about you sometimes… well most of the time actually." Ron pouted as the two women laughed. "Seriously though, I'm actually thinking about going to talk to the centaurs about it to see if they know anything. If they don't I am sure the Goblins will."

The Golden Trio looked at each other and then Ron and Hermione fixed their gazes on Yuri. "You're serious about this aren't you mate?"

"Dead serious."

Ron looked into her eyes, and seemed to come to some conclusion; "Fine but you will have to get the Weasley send-off seeing as you are an Honorary Weasley! Please, just wait until you can give everyone one last goodbye, alright?"

Yuri was about to say that she couldn't wait that long, but she knew it would be unfair of her to let them wonder what happened to her. She made her decision, "Fine. Although I hate to say it, but I'll have to do this one on my own guys." Immediately the other two started to protest. "No, hear me out. You two are going to get married soon and I refuse to give the Ministry ammunition against you. So from here on out I'm going to do this on my own. Go to the burrow and let everyone know that I'll be there Saturday, that gives them 5 days to get ready. Don't let them know that I'm leaving for good though, alright? I'll tell everyone all together."

"Alright Yuri. Just make sure you get there. How are you going to put the Ministry off till then?"

"Easy, I'll tell them that as long as I can have the next week alone, I'll agree to be married next Friday. Oh, that reminds me, make sure to invite Draco Saturday."

Ron didn't look happy, but with a nudge to the side from his fiancé, he grudgingly agreed to it.

Yuri pulled them into a hug and whispered, "You know that I love you two right? If I could I would stay with you… I am so sorry that I brought all of this into your lives." She felt two slaps to her head.

"Shirayuri Potter if you say something that stupid again I'll… I'll… oh I am going to miss you so much!" Hermione began to cry into Ron's shoulder.

Yuri had tears silently tracking down her face, "I know. Ron why don't you take her home? I'll see you guys Saturday."

He nodded at her before taking her over to the fireplace, where they Floo'd back to their apartment.

Yuri wiped her face resolutely before grabbing her cloak. First stop, she thought to herself, Forbidden Forest.

Miles away in a forest in an unknown part of Scotland, a young woman with raven hair that fell to the middle of her back while pulled up into a ponytail, appeared out of nowhere with only a small popping sound. Her brilliant emerald eyes looked around her as if waiting for something. The forest was quiet, as though everything in it was dead, but the woman made no motion to move.

Minutes later, a rustling sound was heard before a creature that many only dream of stepped out into the clearing where the woman was.

A deep voice sounded across the distance, "Greetings, Shirayuri Potter. Why have you come here?"

Yuri bowed lowly before rising back to her full height, and with a voice full of respect, "Greetings, Bane. I wish to speak to someone in your herd who might know anything about different dimensions, is there one who has seen such in the stars?"

Bane looked at said stars for a moment before looking back at Yuri, "There is one willing to speak to you. Follow me."

Yuri bowed once more, and then she straightened as the centaur turned around, jogging to catch up to him. They traveled in companionable silence for several minutes before Bane, followed by Yuri, came to a stop in a clearing similar to where they just came from. Yuri knew better than to say anything as Bane glanced at her before walking back the way they came, understanding the silent order, Stay Here. She sat down by a tree and leaned against it to await her next visitor.

About a half an hour later another Centaur walked up, this one female, that had light grey hair, and yet still looked young, even for a centaur. She walked towards Yuri, who by this point had already stood up to bow.

"Stand, Shirayuri Potter. I have seen in the stars that you would come to me with questions. While I cannot help you, I can tell you that the Goblins will. I came here to inform you that you will need weapons where you are going, more specifically, blades, since I know that is your main choice. Also, if you do not know it already, learn a translation spell to help you where you are going. The dimension you will end up in is very similar to our own, yet you will end up in a different kind of era, where nobility still rules. Learn as much about etiquette as you can, that should aid you in your travels. That is all I can assist you with. Good luck Shirayuri Potter."

Yuri stood there as the centaur turned around and left. Once she got over her shock that her plan would work, she apparated back to Grimmauld Place to look in the black library for any information she could find, and then decided to go to some bookstores to do her research. She sighed as she realized she was in for a long night, and resigned herself to visit Gringotts the next day.

The next morning, as Yuri was preparing to go to Gringotts, she heard a tap tap tap on her window. When she looked over, she saw that it was a standard owl that the Ministry uses to send out its letters. She took the letter and the owl immediately took off, not needing a reply. She looked at the letter with hate before opening it;

'Shirayuri Potter; Lady of Houses Potter and Black:

I agree to allow this time expansion until your upcoming nuptials. We at the Ministry are glad to hear that you agree with our idea, and have decided on the best route for all of the Wizarding World. I will allow you the honor of telling your decision to your future husband, and offer my best wishes for a happy marriage.

Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic'

Yuri looked at the letter before throwing it to the floor and snapping her fingers. The letter lit on fire and she waited until all that was left were ashes before putting it out by snapping her fingers again. She grinned at the charred mess before continuing to get ready, she had an escape to plan after all.

A few hours later, Shirayuri was standing outside of the Goblin-run bank. She went in and walked to the first available teller. When he looked up she smiled.

"Hello! Could I talk to whoever is in charge of the Potter and Black accounts please?"

The goblin looked shocked at her politeness for a split second and then his face cleared and he nodded at her. "That would be Snarl-Mouth, follow me."

He took her to a back room and opened the door, and Yuri saw the oldest looking goblin she had ever seen. She thanked the teller that led her here and sat down the Snarl-Mouth motioned for her to.

"Well Lady Potter, I must say that I was expecting you sometime soon, seeing as how the ministry has been trying to get into your vaults…"

Yuri said a few choice words about what she thought of the ministry before she apologized for interrupting him.

"Yes, well I can understand why you would think that," The goblin would never admit that he was inwardly laughing at the reaction of the young woman. "Now, what is it that I can help you with?"

"Well a few things, honestly. First being a will." Snarl-mouth held up his hand and scrounged up a self-dictating quill above a piece of parchment before waving her on.

"I Shirayuri Rose Potter, do hereby leave 40 percent of my monetary wealth to Theodore Lupin, my godson, to be handled by his guardian, Andromeda Tonks, until she deems him fit to handle them himself. 10 percent of my wealth will go into the funds for Hogwarts to assist in whatever way possible. 5 percent of the remaining monetary wealth will be distributed evenly to a previously written list of orphanages contained in my will. The rest of my monetary wealth will be distributed evenly between each member of the Weasley Family, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, and Draco Malfoy. Any books I have in my name are to be set into a different vault with any of the aforementioned people being the only ones allowed to enter. Properties can be chosen from by the aforementioned people, and any that are not taken are to be sold and the money goes to the list in my will with 15 percent going to the goblins of Gringotts. I ask that Kreacher be allowed to stay at 12 Grimmauld Place until he passes on before anything is done with the house. I have taken the liberty of completely removing the wall with Mrs. Black's portrait and disposing of it. Anything that is goblin made in my possession is to be returned to the goblins to do with as they please, any other material possessions can be distributed among you.

"To my friends, my family; do not be sad that I am no longer with you; be glad that I live my life as I please, not to be dictated by those who abuse their authority. I love and will miss you all. The Weasley Family was my family when my own did not care. You taught me self-worth and for that I will be eternally grateful. Gred and Forge, keep the shop going no matter what! Everyone deserves to be able to laugh. Draco, we started off as enemies and transformed into somewhat friends. Do not let the shadows of your ancestors taint what you can become. Bring honor back to the Malfoy name with your actions, you have been given a clean slate to write upon. Teddy, my Teddy-bear, I am sorry to leave you but know that I am always with you in mind and heart. I wish I could see you grow up, but you have a large family to stand beside you, and be nice to your grandmother! I love you, just as your parents love you. Luna and Neville, you stood beside me through thick and thin, you are two of the bravest people I have ever met, and I hope that you two have a wonderful marriage and many kids! Sorry that I will not be able to attend the wedding!

"To the other two-thirds of the Golden Trio, my best friends from 1st year, and my personal life savers; Hermione and Ronald: if it were not for the two of you I would never have survived to see my 12th birthday! You were by my side for every death defying stunt I pulled and action I took! I will forever remember and look upon our friendship with the utmost love, and I know that the two of you will have a happy life together! Make lots of babies!

"Thus ends the will of Shirayuri Rose Potter."

Snarl-Mouth's jaw had dropped when she mentioned what would be given to the goblins, and was replaced with a look of utmost respect. He bowed his head and said,

"Ms. Potter, it has been an honor to have met you, and we goblins can only hope there will be more witches and wizards like you in the future. Now what can I help you with next?"

"Well before I leave I will need to go to my vault to withdraw some money, but before that, are there any inconspicuous swords and daggers in any of my vaults that will not stand out too much in an open country?"

Snarl-Mouth thought for a moment before nodding his head and stating, "Yes I do believe I can think of a sword and two daggers that are goblin made and can be found in the Potter Vault."

"Oh that is wonderful! Since they would be going to Gringotts according to my will, I would like you to withdraw the amount you would deem proper to purchase them to be given to the account they should go to."

He looked at Yuri in surprise, "Even though they are technically still in your possession?"

She looked at him sheepishly, "Well they will never be seen in this world again, so I would feel wrong if I just took what I am sure are masterpieces without some sort of compensation."

He looked at her shrewdly and nodded. Then he questioned, "Am I to assume that is what I am to help you with next? That comment about the weapons not being seen in this world again?"

"Yes, I was told by a centaur that the goblins would be able to send me to a different dimension, is this true?"

"Why yes it is, we can be ready as soon as you need us to."

"Do I need to get any supplies for the process?"

"No we have everything we need here."

Yuri laughed, "Do this kind of thing often, do you?" Snarl-mouth smiled mischievously and didn't say a word. "Alright I won't ask! Could it be ready for early Sunday morning, say at around 9?" He nodded. "Then all that is left is to go to retrieve the weapons and then I will be back here Sunday!"

Snarl-Mouth personally led her to the Potter vaults to retrieve the weapons, the sword was light and she took a couple of practice swings with it. He asked her the obvious question, "Where did you learn to use weapons?"

She smiled wistfully before softly telling him that her deceased god father taught her and when he died she signed up with a trainer to perfect her skill. "Same with daggers, I pretty much am best at Swords and daggers, but I have some experience in a wide variety of weapons." He nodded before handing her the daggers. All three weapons were in almost mint condition, with red and gold leather wrappings around the hilt. Of course they are a Gryffindor family so Gryffindor colors. She giggled to herself. She then grabbed a few handfuls of galleons, hoping that wherever she ended up would accept gold. When they were done in the vaults, Snarl-Mouth led her back to the front of the gate and wished her well, saying that he would see her Sunday.

She headed back home to continue doing some on pureblood etiquette hoping that there would be enough similarities between here and where she ends up for her not to gravely insult someone... There wasn't much she could do, or find out, but it at least helped pass the time.

So here is the first chapter of SHIRAYURI POTTER! I am not really sure of when I want her to end up in the SM series (oh and I will be going by the anime with a few of my own twists, cause I love Shuurei and Ryuuki too much to let their romance be ruined!) but I will get that figured out. So for anyone who found this story, what do you think? Think it might be something interesting or should I forget my silly idea and drop it? (ha like im going to do that!) so it is definitely going to have the shuureixryuuki pairing, but I am up in the air on Shirayuki's pairing! See ya next chapter!
