"So what do you want?"
Anko asked as she pushed Sakura to the pet shop. Then she grabbed the paper on Sakura's hands.
"Hmmm... your allowed to get an... owl... Snake... frog or toad... cat... puppy... and a slug"
She readed the list.

"Slug?"
Sakura asked incredulously
"Slug can be a pet?"

"Oh yes... it can help you heal too"

Sakura was about to ask something but stopped as she heard another voice.

"My I help you?"
A voice asked

Anko looked around and smiled as she saw another woman.
"Mrs. Tsume Inuzuka!"
Sakura stared at the woman, she has an upside down red triangle tattoos one of each of her cheeks.

"Anko"
Tsume smiled showing her fangs
"So what do you want?... new pet?"

Sakura widened her eyes in shock
She have fangs?!

Tsume notice this and smirked
"Don't worry, I won't bite ya... it's was part of our bloodline, little girl"

"This girl here will choose a pet"
Anko pointed Sakura

"Ahh... I see, selecting a perfect pet huh?"
Tsume smiled
"I think my daughter, Hana can take care of that"
She pointed another lady who was feeding some cute puppies.

"Great let's go!"
Anko smiled and dragged Sakura closer to the other lady. The lady looked and widened her eyes.

"Anko!"
She smiled as she stood up and hugged Anko.

"Of course it's me!"
Anko smirked then looked down to Sakura.
"This is Hana Inuzuka, one of my former classmates but she belongs to another house... the Gryffindors"

Hana rolled her eyes
"Yeah... and your such mean girl on those past years"

"Well, I can't help tho... it's fun!"
Anko laughed

Slytherin... and now Gryffindor?
How many house are actually there?
Sakura mentally asked herself

"Hi there!"
Hana smiled showing her fangs.
"So... you already decided yet?"

Let's try a Slug!
Sakura's inner sugested in her mind.
Miss Anko said that it can help us heal...
We never knew if something will happen us there... if we might be hurt... A slug pet will be the best fit!
Sakura sighed and decided to follow her inner.
"I'll get a slug pet!"

"Fantastic! Follow me"
Hana lead them to the glass aquariums
"Here... you can choose one"
She poked the aquarium.

Sakura faught herself not to vomit as she stared at the creatures.
Minutes after choosing, one slug caught her attention. It was color white with bluish-green colour at the side of its body.
"That one"
She pointed at the small slug
It has a weird color but I like it

"You remind me of someone, you have the same taste as her when selecting a pet... totally one hundred percent"
She grinned as she slowly pick the slimy small pet and put it inside a small glass aquarium.

I wonder who is this someone?
Sakura muttered as she slowly grab the small glass aquarium.

"So you got the pet, anything else?"
Hana asked

"We will get a guide pet book too!"
Anko said as she payed Hana.

"Shure!"
Hana quickly walk away and came back, already holding a black book with beautiful cursive designs.
"Here you go, a guide pet book!"
She grinned

"Thanks"
Anko smiled and gave it to Sakura
"You will need this, you will learn everything about your pet and other creatures, all their strengths and weaknesses!"
Then she looked to her small watch and her face suddenly paled.
"We are almost behind schedule!"
She exclaimed
"Let's go, Sakura!"
She dragged the girl while her luggage
"Bye, Hana and Mrs. Tsume!"
And with that, they went out.

They both went back to where Anko parked her motorcycle .
Sakura looked at the boxes she was carrying, then looked at Anko who was carrying one big luggage... her luggage.

"How can we carry this things all the way to Hogwarts?"
Sakura asked

"Let, me..."
Anko smirked as she put the big luggage down, then she pulled her wand and chanted something that the pinkette couldn't understand.
Suddenly an extension appeared at the back of the motorcycle.
"This will do!"
Anko grinned and place Sakura's luggage on the extension. Sakura smiled and put down her boxes.

...

They where traveling for hours now, the sun was already set... Full moon was glowing in the night sky with twinkling thousand stars around.
Sakura got bored at felt sleepy...
Anko notice this and giggled.
"If I'm you, I would try my best to stay awake especially I'm ridding on a flying motorcycle"
Suddenly her eyes widened as she remembered something.
"Good god! I forgot to change you to your robe!"
Anko exclaimed

This woken up Sakura.
"What?... but how can I change when... we are in the middle of the sky?"

"Magic will do the trick"
Anko grinned and grab her wand by her left hand, while leaving her right hand to control their magical motorcycle. Anko waved her wand and chanted something that Sakura couldn't understand again.
With a blink of an eye, Sakura's clothes change into long black robe.
Sakura stared in astonishment
How?!
(The usual first year robe in Harry Potter)

Not too long, a huge castle came to view.
Sakura's eyes widened at the castle before them.
"That's Hogwarts?"
She gaped

"Yes.... And now let's land! Everyone was already gathered in the Great hall now"
Anko said and with that, the motorcycle speeded and landed on the firm ground of Hogwarts.
Sakura quickly look to her reflection on the motorcycle's mirror and sighed. She looked horrible, her hair was a mess, its look like a bird was nesting to it! She quickly opened her small bag and grab a comb.
She combed her long pink hair that reached her mid-back and sighed again.
She started to fell nervous as they entered the gates.
"Anko... I... I can't... do it"
She hesitated as she heared voices getting louder from the Great hall, and that means... they are getting closer.

"Oh... where is the determined spirit before?"
Anko smirked as she started walking on the stairs.

The pinkette stopped walking and looked to Anko.
"I don't now"
She lowered her head, unable to meet her gaze. Anko sighed and walk back to her.
"Hey cheer up! Don't be sad"
Anko smiled as she pat Sakura's head
"I know that you can do it!"
She grab Sakura's hands.
"Now let's go!"

Anko opened the door while Sakura hesitatedly followed behind.
She was nervous... very very nervous AND HER HEART BEAT STOPPED FOR A SECOND when the great hall fell silent when they entered.
Then Sakura's heart beat began to beat faster again as she felt all their gaze on her.

I wish I could disappear out of their sights!
