Wicked Fiends
Chapter One
"OWL!" Yusuke shrieked, jumping up and down in a small dance as a large, tawny owl swooped down into the park where Yusuke, Kurama, and Hiei were. "GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF! HELP!"
"Baka ningen," Hiei growled and the owl turned on him in an instant. It flew at Hiei with mock precision but misjudged the koorime dearly, for the fire youkai grabbed the bird and broke its neck with ease. "Baka bird."
"Hiei!" Kurama exclaimed in shock. Behind him, Yusuke continued to cower away from the animal even though it was dead. "You cruel youkai! What did the bird ever do to you?!"
"Ah ha!" a voice chirped from above them. The three looked up from their arguement momentarilly and stared at the ferrie girl on her oar. "It's about time that owl found you! Guess what, boys! You've got another mission!"
With a huge smile, Botan flew out of sight into the afternoon sky, her laughter, though, remained with the three puzzled Spirit Detectives as they stared after her. Taking his ruby eyes off where the ferrie girl had been, Hiei took the chance to notice a very thick envelope clutched in the claws of the dead owl. On the part of the envelope that he could read was written:
To the three strongest of the Rentai Tentai and one important friend...
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry...
"Whatcha mean we gotta go to London?! Where the hell is London?! Is that even on this planet?! Is it even in this-"
Kurama coughed softly, interrupting the ranting raven haired boy into silence. Hiei, Kurama, and Yusuke were in Koenma's office where Yusuke was currently in a fit of rage after discovering their latest mission... even though the toddler had alreadly left the room.
"London, Yusuke, is in Europe," Kurama said pointedly. "The easiest path of travel is a portal just off the beach shores of the Atlantic on the coast of Japan, not that far of a travel for us. Obviously, if you were listening, you would understand that it is of vital interest that we take up this mission, eve if it does mean we have to sacrifice a year to do so. The idea of a demon taking out an entire race of magic using humans is a vital task that we have to stop as soon as possible. For once, Koenma is right on this case. It is very important that we get over to London and to Hogwarts as quickly as possible."
"Kurama..." Yusuke growled menacingly and recieved an evil glare from the normal silence of Hiei. "We're going to a school for wizards for damn's sake!"
"Yes, I know that," the red head nodded, his hair falling into his face. "And it truly helps that Genkai was able to recommend us as teachers for a cultural experience."
"Is that what that old hag said?!" Yusuke demanded, slamming a fist on Koenma's empty desk. "Whatever convinced her to say we'll provide a cultural experience?! This is how we should do it-"
"Shut up," Hiei growled. "Your voice is annoying."
"Why you-"
"Yusuke, there is no way of avoiding this," Kurama interrupted once again. "We must save this school even if it is called Hogwarts. Come now, we must make it to London immediately."
Wearily, after a long travel, they stepped out of the portal. London. It looked as they thought it would: dark, dank, and dreary, a light fog hung in the air. It was after all, the middle of the night. A dreary cast from the pale light of the moon silohetted bus, appearing out of no where, made a forceful bang and accepted the weary travelers into its sanctuary. It was the Knight Bus.
"Thank you," Kurama nodded thankfully to Ernie and Stan as he, Yusuke, and Hiei got off the Knight Bus. "We gratefully appreciate it."
Without a word or sound, the Knight Bus disappeared into the morning.
"London," Yusuke muttered unappreciatively.
"Would's you be... Yu...Yu... k... and He...hay... and Coo...Ranma?" a very tall ningen with a burly beard approached them. Hiei and Yusuke glowered at the ningen for so talentedly ruining their names.
"Yes, we would," Kurama smiled, pushing his hair from his face. "This is Yusuke-" he pronounced the names slowly. "And this is Hiei. And... I am Kurama. It is a pleasure to meet you. And who are you?"
"Name's Hagrid, at yer service. So, yer the Professors from Japan, eh?" he looked down at them while Yusuke stared up at him stupidly. "Ah, well, a little young if you ask me but never doubt Dumbledore, I always say. And Master Genkai is a legend, so never doubt her either, I always say."
"You say alot," Yusuke noted. "And you're really, really, really, REALLY tall. Just the opposite of Hiei!"
BAM!
"Woh..." Yusuke found himself staring up at a glaring Hiei, who held his katana in hand, and found the world spinning before his eyes.
"I am not short!" Hiei snapped.
"No, he's just vertically challenged," Kurama piped cheerfully. Hiei scowled at Kurama before sheathing his sword and stalking away after Hagrid, who moved to lead the three Professors to Diagon Alley.
"So, we've got a youngin... and a vertically challenged one... and the cute girl-"
"I beg your pardon!" Kurama demanded ludicrously. "For your information, I am NOT a girl! I am
a MAN!"
"Beggin' yer pardon, Professor," Hagrid blushed under all his scraggly hair. "Didn't know with all that hair."
"Of all the indignant-" Kurama paused, huffing madly. He closed his eyes, drowning out the sound of Yusuke's howling laughter and Hiei's snickering before he continued. "I just happen to like my hair long! End of discussion!"
He stormed away without another word, glaring at anyone who crossed his path.
"Wow..." Yusuke stared into Diagon Alley as the bricks moved aside.
"Welcome to Diagon Alley," Hagrid beamed.
"It's... big..." escaped from Hiei's lips and Kurama smiled slightly.
"IT'S HUGE!" Yusuke exclaimed. "HOW DO YOU FIT ALL THIS IN A WALL?!"
Kurama sighed and gathered himself as he realized how long a year it was going to be. Sighing again, he turned his attention to Hagrid just as the large man remembered something.
"I've got to go, important meeting, you know," Hagrid winked at the red head. "I'll be seein' yer around Hogwarts I suppose. Ah, before I forget, ye got yer lists?"
"Yes, we do," Kurama said curtly, still fuming at the large man.
"Ah, then here's the money you'll be needin' to buy yer supplies," Hagrid handed them pouches of money. "It's from Dumbledore as a gift. Don't mind payin' him back, he won't accept it. Well, I'll be seein' ya."
With that, the large man disappeared into the crowds of witches and wizards. As Kurama stared from the lists in one hand to the money in the other, it dawned on him of what he had to do.
"SHOPPING!" he exclaimed as his mood brightened, grabbing Hiei and Yusuke by the collars and dragged the two of them into Diagon Alley.
