When the class ended, she held Neko and Harry back.

"I suppose you two don't really need any real lessons in magical weaponry, seeing as how you made your guns shoot condensed magic without any help."

"No ma'am."

"Don't call me ma'am. I'm only twenty three."

"So what are you going to teach us then?"

"How to summon your personal familiars, if you're interested."

Neko and Harry looked at each other, then grinned.

"Alright, first things first, bring out Hades and Zeus."

They obediently brought out the guns.

"Next, I want you to visualize your favorite animal. And this is important. You should will that animal to you."

Neko went first. Slowly, a small black hole appeared. Out of it came a rather interesting two-tailed cat, with blue eyes and obsidian black fur. It had a star on it's forehead.

"What is your familiar's name?"

"Hoshi."

"Open your eyes then, Neko."

Neko looked and saw the cat. Hoshi mewed, and he promptly picked it up.

"You next."

Harry visualized a bird. It was a merlin with green eyes, and vibrant red feathers. It flew through the window and landed on the desk.

"Name?"

"Emrys."

"Look around."

"Cool!"

Emrys flew to Harry's shoulder.

"Hmm...you two have a natural talent for both arts. If you two help me with a prank, I'll teach you both reverse-summoning by Christmas."

"What kind of prank?"

"One that will leave ol' Dumbledork running from a certain nightmare out of muggle children shows."

The demonic grins on both their faces was all she needed.


"AHHH!"

This scream was heard all through the school, as a large purple, and singing dinosaur waltzed the halls. Teacher after teacher attempted to get rid of it, the seventh and sixth years did their hardest to kill it, and the ones responsible were laughing their asses off watching the whole thing.

The worst part of the joke was that the song the dinosaur was singing was clearly on a repeating loop. So it just started over and over again.

"I love you, you love me, we're a happy family..."

"It's times like this that I'm glad the silencing charm was invented," cackled Ms. Hikari.

Neko, Harry, Draco and the twins were cackling with her. No doubt the muggleborn and half-blood students would have nightmares for months.

"Should we rescue them?" asked Harry finally.

"Wait until Dumbles tries to kill it, then I'll rescue them. Too bad they don't know it disappears when you say the foulest muggle swear word that you know."

That had the boys howling again.

Dumbledore came out into the Great Hall, and tried to use the Elder wand to destroy the disturbing dinosaur. It bounced back, and five minutes later, Professor Hikari appeared, annoyed.

"I'm trying to read! Shut the FUCK up!"

The singing abruptly stopped, and the dinosaur imploded in on itself. A sigh of relief was heard. Professor Hikari gave the other teachers a look of annoyance.

"Honestly, it's like you lot have never had one of those set on you before."

"What sort of curse is it?"

"It's a spell. I barely know how to cast one myself, but if I ever find the one who created it, the Dark Lord will be the least of their problems."


When the class walked into the new room, they were mildly surprised to see a large black panther sleeping on the teacher's desk. Assuming it was another one of her summons, they sat down, with the exception of Neko and Harry who gave it a good ear scratch.

So imagine their shock when after the large cat woke up and roared, it transformed into Professor Hikari!

"Twenty points to Slytherin for showing actual backbone. Now for today's lesson, I will be testing your natural ability for this subject. Don't be offended it you are unable to take this class, some people aren't suited for it at all."

Hermione was the first to be tested. She couldn't take the magical weaponry as her temperament wasn't suited for it. Draco was one of the few selected to take both sides of the class.

Draco, Neko, Neville, Harry, Luna, Lee, Gred and Forge- Summoning and Weaponry

Hermione, Padma, Blaise, Seamus, Dean, Percy- Summoning

Ron, Cedric, Cho, Colin, Angelina and Ginny- Weaponry

Crabbe, Goyle, Nott, Flint, and Lavender- Unsuited for subject.

"For those who couldn't handle this course, I recommend another subject. Ancient Runes may be better for you."

The students who couldn't handle to course left to schedule in a new class.

"Now for those that have passed the initial test, I will hand out your course books. Treat them right, or I will have Madam Pince on you. Your first assignment is to find what suits you best. For the weaponry course, I want you to find the weapon that fits you. You will receive it within the next few weeks, and will begin your training. Summoners, you will search for your personal Familiar. When you find one, we shall begin bringing them out."

Neko and Harry stayed behind, to get different instructions.

"Since you two are slightly ahead of the class, I want you to bring out the magical properties of a muggle weapon. I don't care what it is, so long as it can be obtained easily without question."

As they left the room, Neko turned to Harry.

"The only weapon that comes to mind is a blade of some sort. Guns are illegal in the UK, and the US has a restriction of three days on them. Not to mention they wouldn't dare sell them to thirteen year olds."

"True. And I don't think she would accept the blades in the house. So who do we owl for this?"

"Not Creed or Charlie. Maybe...I'll think of something."


In the end they owled Micheal and asked for help. He sent them two long switchblades. They were razor sharp, and had a serrated edge to them. The next week was spent trying to bring out a magical property.

"Everyone finish the assignment? Let's see. Full marks to Draco, Granger, Fred, George, Cho, and Luna. Ten points to each of you. Neko and Harry, I see you've gotten a start on the assignment. Five points for you. The rest of you still need to work on the assignment from last week. Until you can finish that, you will be unable to continue."

The door opened, and Dumbledore walked in. Professor Hikari talked to him in a quiet but irritated voice. He sat down and listened until the end of class.

"Granger, I will show you how to summon your familiar after class. You are to practice this technique until you can do so perfectly. Miss Chang, I will order your weapon after I have spoken to Miss Granger. It should arrive in time for the next class, if we're lucky. Draco, Neko, Harry, and the terror twins, I will speak to you later."

Dumbledore seemed surprised at her hands on approach to teaching. When he saw how she dealt with each student individually, he approved.

He asked her later why she taught them alone instead of a group like every other professor.

"I've found that with a little help from a teacher, they understand the course work better."


A Ministry official actually came and graded her class, watching her teach and how she dealt with problems that came up. When they left, she awaited the owl that she knew would come. Dumbledore had warned her that new classes always received a Ministry rating, and depending on how well the teacher taught in class that day, this would make or break the class.

The owl came in a week later. In front of her class, she read the document. Everyone cheered at the end.

"In regards to this new course, we find that it does not teach any aspect of Dark Magic, and that it is an acceptable branch of magic. In further note, we believe Ms. Sakura Hikari's teaching to be noteworthy and competent, as she has gone out of her way to help ailing students in this new branch of magic. Should she teach another year, an OWL may be created to handle this new course.

Signed, Cornelius Fudge, Minister for Magic."

"And here I thought the entire ministry was full of sheep who believed anything."

A series of snorts and shocked gasps filled the room. She grinned.

"Back to work. Now since most of you have completed the first portion of the assignment, it is now time for the practical. This is where the hard part starts."

Now Neko and Harry were on par with the rest of the students. They actually enjoyed being on the same page as their classmates, and found that this new class brought out new things to talk about with their fellow third years.


It was Hogsmeade weekend, and the two couldn't wait. Despite Dumbledore attempting to at least keep Harry back, they had asked Sakura-sensei for help.

He couldn't come up with an excuse to keep Harry inside when she said to him at breakfast that she would escort the boys 'just-in-case'. He had never seen Severus smirk so widely. He almost gave the other teachers a heart attack!

And that cackle the new teacher let loose at the sight gave him the chills.

"Where to first, boys? Candy store or a drink? Behave and I may let you two have a sip of fire-whiskey."

Neko gaped at her.

"Aren't you supposed to be a teacher?"

"Let's just say I'll be looking the other way if you happen to take a sip from my drink," she quipped.

Somehow, Neko knew this professor and his father would get along famously.

After buying what would normally be a year's worth of fudge, they headed to the bookstore. Seems the one in Hogsmeade had more accurate books.

Sakura-sensei bought three new books, and recommended to the owner that he order some muggle literature. Seems there was an actual demand for it at the school.

Sakura bought three butterbeers and a fire whiskey. The third butterbeer was for Neville, who sat down next to her in order to ask about the class.

"Well Neville, given the fact that you are a genuine herbology prodigy, I would recommend a whip. Or maybe a vine with no magical properties that you can turn into one."

"I can actually imagine Neville with a sword made of woven grass," admitted Neko.

"So can I. Maybe we should find non-magical plants that Neville can grow into a sword?"

"I would count that as part of his weaponry training. It incorporates both magical and muggle learning, and it works with his natural talent."

Neville blushed at her praise, which she only gave when she actually meant it. She even gave him a short list off the top of her head of plants he could try, like bamboo grass. She even told him she would order some for him and Professor Sprout to experiment with.

As they left the pub, Harry and Neko growled. Ron Weasly was clearly trying to find and or cast a nasty hex on them.

"Is there a problem Mr. Weasly?"

"No Professor. I just wanted to spend some time with my classmates."

"If I hear you've been cursing fellow students, Mr. Weasly, I will have you banned from the village for a year."

"Yes Professor."

"Good. I believe it's time for you to return to the castle, Neko and Harry," smirked Sakura.

The boys were laughing at the shocked look on Ron's face as they walked up to the castle. The Dementors were out in full force, apparently there had been an attack on the Fat Lady.

Harry felt sorry for the woman, who had to deal with Fred and George everyday. So the next morning he went on a mild search and found her. After realizing the boy would actually listen to her, she promised to alert him whenever they changed the password.

(It turns out that the heirs of any house automatically were alerted to the new password, regardless of what house they were in.)

'Hello pranking opportunities.'


The Gryffindor house was hit with a rather spectacular bout of pranks, thanks to a mysterious villain known to all as Olympus. When Ravenclaw and Slytherin were hit on the same night at the exact same time, the teachers knew it had to be at least two, possibly three students at work.

The twins were considered, but it was public knowledge that they were hit first when the pranks began.

"I'd love to get my hands on this one," growled McGonagall.

"Clearly it is either a Gryffindor who got his hands on the Slytherin password and got lucky with Ravenclaw, or a Slytherin that obtained the Gryffindor password and overheard the other," said Flitwick.

'Or it could be all three. An heir can claim the right of passage to the rooms, and they are in residence.'

The first thing Snape did when he got back to his office was have Draco bring in Neko, Mizuki and Harry.

"Alright you three. I know you are the ones responsible for that series of pranks last week."

Draco gaped.

"How on earth did you figure it out? We covered our tracks!" protested Neko.

"Please. I didn't live through my school years with those blasted Marauders and not learn how to pick up on the obvious."

"The Marauders?" asked Draco.

"Niko and Harry's fathers. They were also known as Padfoot, Moony and Prongs. I'm sure Lupin suspects you."

"Uncle Moony knows it was us. He helped to plan the ones on Gryffindor," snorted Harry.

"But how on earth did you get in? Gryffindor is our rival house!" said Draco.

"There is a very little known by-law in the school rules. The heirs of the four houses are granted the privilege of the password, even if they are in another house. It was written on the grounds that the Founder's heirs would be natural leaders in times of crisis, and the headmaster has no power to revoke this."

"I'm the heir of Gryffindor, and I asked Flitwick a similar riddle to get that password. I claimed it was for a crossword puzzle."

"And he didn't suspect anything?"

"Nope."

"So long as you don't go after the heads of those houses, or me, I will keep this to myself. This school could use a little stirring up."

When he questioned Ms. Hikari, she cackled and said "I plead the fifth."

To which McGonagall reminded her that she was in the wrong country for that one.

"Not true. I am an American citizen, and those rights don't end at the borders."

Which lead to a debate on muggle politics and treaties.


Sirius howled with laughter when he read the report from Moony. Seems his son and godson took after him and James more than he thought! And he had to meet this new teacher. She sounded interesting.

Sirius came to Hogsmeade in time for the weekend. Neko, Harry and Sakura were walking down when they ran into him, literally.

"SIRIUS!"

"Dad!"

Both boys glomped the man and had their teacher howling with laughter.

"I was wondering if your teacher wouldn't mind me accompanying you?"

"You just want to go on a date," she snorted.

Sirius feigned being hurt, despite it being true.

"I already have a boyfriend."

"What does he think about not seeing your lovely face for several months of the year?" asked Neko.

"Honestly? He feels sorry for you lot."

"Why?" asked Harry.

"Because, and I quote..." started Sakura when an unfamiliar voice interrupted.

"It's better for her craziness to be contained in a school than let loose. Hello dear," grinned the newcomer.

Three wizards stared in shock at his hair color. It was white...not a platinum blond like Draco's or a silvery blond like Luna, but pure white!

"Meet my boyfriend, Bakura Shiroyuki."

"Very funny. Just call me Bakura."

Something about him sent warning signals in all of their minds. But since it wasn't directed at them, Neko let it go.

The next class they had was interesting. Sakura brought an actual laptop, and demonstrated that it would work within the wards if one gave it magical power. And her personal favorite, free wireless Internet within the school!

She even mentioned that from now on she would be playing random music in class.

(She had a few girls howling with laughter when the first song she played was 'I'm a Barbie Girl'.)

They learned something interesting about their favorite teacher. She loved anime songs. About half of her playlist was Japanese. And she could sing very well when asked.


They were working on summoning the week she brought in her boyfriend. Several females in the school were very interested in her love life, as she was easily the most popular teacher in Hogwarts, next to Lupin.

Many of the girls cooed over her boyfriend Bakura, who was a master of summoning, among other things. He was allowed in on the grounds that Sakura needed a bit of assistance teaching the finer aspects of the class while she worked on the weaponry students.

Dumbledore never knew what hit him when all four houses were pranked, especially him! And he never suspected that Bakura and Sakura were to blame this time!

As the twins praised whoever pulled it off, the two grinned. Not even Neko and Harry knew it was them.


So when Christmas rolled around, Sakura had a special surprise for those who managed to get to magical creature summoning.

It seemed very few of her students were ready to start what she referred to as Reverse-Summoning.

Harry, Neko, Hermione, Draco, Neville, Luna and the twins were eager to try this. Sakura-sensei had made a few passing remarks about the subject, and had yet to demonstrate.

"First off, since you are staying for the holidays for whatever reason, I want you to practice in your common room or in here, in pairs only. Some of the places you will go to will be safer if you have a partner, and I may switch you around."

"Where do we go first?" asked Hermione, a quiver with excitement.

"It depends. Do you want a normal fantasy or a science fiction adventure?" grinned Sakura.

Hermione Granger, the misplaced Ravenclaw, actually gave a fangirl squeal when Sakura brought out the books. Needless to say, every single one of them turned and looked at her in outright shock.

"What sort of books do you have?"

"Lord of the Rings, Anne McCafferey's Dragonriders of Pern series, Dune, all three of the Dragonlance Chronicles, and a few Simon R. Green books that you can read later."

Hermione had a visibly difficult time staying still.

"Alright, for starters, Reverse-summoning is almost exactly how it sounds. Instead of bringing someone or something to you, you go to it. I generally use this trick to avoid international flights...or port-keys, which are a real bitch over long distances."

This is the true reason she is the favorite of practically every student she comes across. She has no problem using swear words. Lupin was likable in general.

"The first thing we're going to do is pick pairs. Fred and George, Neko and Harry, Luna and Hermione, and finally Neville and Draco. I want each of you to stick with your partner until you find the exit. Now before we even attempt going into the books, I will discuss the world you will go into first."

As she describe the world, which she called 'Naruto-verse', Neko and Harry let out a cheer.

"So you've read the series?"

"We OWN the series!" said Harry, grinning.

"Good. Then you and Neko will lead Fred and George around. I recommend introducing them to Naruto. Hermione, Luna, Draco and Neville will be with me as soon as I get something."

She walked out with a headband. She put it around her neck, and then demonstrated how to reverse-summon.

"Kura, you watch over the boys. And introduce Haku and Sasuke. We're off to annoy the hell out of that twit Haruno."

Neko's group went in first, then Sakura-sensei held onto Luna's as they went in.

"Hey Harry!" yelled Naruto.

"Huh? How does he know my name?"

"Oops. She must have sent us to our default Naruto-verse by mistake...which means Haruno is with Tsunade and Shizune."

"There's more than one Naruto-verse?" asked Neko.

"Yeah, in this one, Sasuke is Harry's twin brother who was somehow separated from him at birth, Haku is still alive, and they are all on the same team."

"Hi! Oh, wait, you're not the Harry we're used to, are you?" said Naruto.

"Nope, but he and the cat-kid are pranksters. Care to plot against the houses again?"

Naruto's fox-grin grew evil. Soon the downfall of Hogwarts would be complete.


"Oh dear. I must have picked the default one by mistake again."

"What exactly does that mean?" asked Hermione.

"It means the headmaster is doomed. I almost feel sorry for him. Naruto knows about magic, and with the terror twins, the kittens and Bakura in one group...let's just say we should go to ground for a few weeks, tops. Best to let nature run it's course with that lot."

Halfway through the week they spent in that world, they were attacked by foreign ninjas.


Sakura fended them off long enough for her group to escape into the portal. Then jumped in after them.

Bakura's group arrived back to the classroom earlier, since Naruto knew where the portal was and Harry was smart enough to ask directions.

So when they saw the disheveled look of the other group, the howls of laughter could be heard outside.

"Run into trouble?"

"Damn Sound Ninja. How the hell did they find me so bloody fast?"

"It's your luck?"

"I see you also found the boys. Tell me, how bad will it be?"

"Hide for the next month when everyone comes back."

"Warn Remus and Snape."

Poor, poor Hogwarts.
