Summary: It's been one year since Yusuke was able to master his Toushin form, able to master it, his new found powers, senses, and abilities in only one and half years. Now he has returned to the Ningenkai at the age of only sixteen, soon to be seventeen. He has seen all he has wanted in the Makai and Reikai. Now he wishes to merely live his life out with the one he loves. Wishing to reconcile with his mother, he admits everything to her and discovers the biggest secret she has ever kept from him in his entire life.

Chapter One: The Hidden Letter and Diagon Alley
Yusuke arrived back in the Ningenkai after two years of being absent, he had changed very much, maturing greatly and having anew understanding of his past from his father's side anyway. Now all he wanted to do was live his life out with the one he loved Keiko, but something inside of him told him he needed to reconcile with his mother. So she was the first stop on his list, but not before he stopped by a store and picked up some hair ties, since he just let his hair grow out, and the restaurant that Keiko's parents ran.
"What can I get for you son?" asked Mr. Ukimura politely.
"Just give me whatever I can get for twenty dollars," said Yusuke as Mr. Ukimura nodded and went right to work.
"Here you go," said Mr. Ukimura politely. "That will be fifteen dollars."
"Keep the change," said Yusuke handed him the money as he down the soup in one gulp.
Leaving the restaurant he kept walking before he came upon his old apartment, where he and his mother lived. He didn't know if she still even lived there, but there was only one way to find out. On his way up to the fourth floor, in the elevator, he saw one of the Missing People's posters with his picture on it. Ripping it down he shredded it and threw it on the floor.
'It must have been Keiko who had my picture put on it. My mother is always too drunk to notice I'm missing anyways,' thought Yusuke smugly.
Coming up on the door that had led into his apartment he still had the key to it, if the locks hadn't been changed. Putting the key into the slot he opened the door to find it surprisingly clean, no beer bottles on the floor or counter, no cigarette smoke in the air or buds on the floor. It was clean and looked like it had been for a long time. He walked over to kitchen counter and saw a picture of him and his mother at the last festival they went to together. Smiling sadly he walked out of the kitchen and began walking around the small apartment, amazed that everything was so clean and neat, not to mention that it looked like it had been that way for a long time. He found his old room, clean as well, but with a picture of himself sitting on the dresser next to a picture of his mother. As he was about to pick the picture of his mother up he heard the door open and he silently swore at himself for being so careless. Moving quickly and silently he carefully moved into the hall and towards the living room, where he hoped he could escape and come back later when he was ready to talk with his mother. However he soon heard the rustling of clothes moving towards the living room. Quickly he jumped up and used his hands and feet to suspend himself up near the ceiling as his mother walked by and into his room where she sat down on his bed and started to cry.
"Two years Yusuke… I never got to tell you, but I'm sorry. You probably hate me wherever you are and I can't say that I blame you. I'd hate me too… well it's that time again, it's your birthday. Today you'll be seventeen and I won't bet here with you to show you how much I've cleaned myself up. Keiko stops by every now and then, but never on this day, it's too painful for her. She still loves you and insists that one day you'll return to us. Deep down I know she's right, but I it's still hard to believe," said Atsuko as she quickly turned when she heard a thump outside the bedroom door.
"Damn it!" mumbled Yusuke as he made a break for the door, only to be tackled from behind, causing him to hit his head hard enough on the floor to knock him unconscious.
Two Hours Later
"Damn it!" said Yusuke as he awoke tied down to a chair.
"Alright thief, what did you want and what did you take?" said Atsuko angrily.
"I'm no thief!" snapped Yusuke angrily as he pushed against his restraints and snapped one off. "Now let me go!"
"No! You will answer truthfully or I will force it out of you!" said Atsuko testily.
"BITCH!" snapped Yusuke angrily as he snapped another two restraints only to be slugged in the jaw and then have three drops of liquid dropped in his mouth, which tasted awful, enough to make Yusuke start swearing more as it tried to make him docile, but he fought it with his very being.
"Now what did you take?" said Atsuko.
"DAMN IT BITCH I DIND'T TAKE ANYTHING!" roared Yusuke as he snapped the last restraints and ripped them off his body. "Now you are going to get what's coming!"
"How did you withstand the effects of Veritaserum that was the most potent truth potion on the planet!" said Atsuko clearly shocked.
"I am no ordinary person, my kind are immune to many things and have resistance to even more! I know someone who can make a truth potion so powerful even the strongest of my kind wouldn't be able to withstand its effects," said Yusuke as Atsuko stood up quickly and backed away from and pulled what looked to Yusuke to be a wooden stick and pointed it at Yusuke.
"STUPEFY!" yelled Atsuko as a bright light hit Yusuke in the chest and sent him flying back into the chair he had just been tied down to earlier.
"Uh, what the hell was that!" exclaimed Yusuke blinking trying to clear his vision.
"That was a stunning spell," said Atsuko. "I know a more powerful one, now behave. Exactly what are you?"
"Go to hell," replied Yusuke before getting slapped upside the face and having a bottle of the same liquid practically dumped down his throat. "Ugh! More of that shit!"
"Yes more, maybe now, since you've had an entire bottle, you'll be easier to question! Now what are you!" demanded Atsuko.
"Oh shut up!" replied Yusuke.
"I have another three bottles of that potion, maybe they'll help loosen your tongue!" said Atsuko as she reached for another bottle.
"NO! I'll tell you, just don't make me drink anymore of that shit!" said Yusuke. "That stuff tastes worse than Yoko's truth potions!"
"Yoko? So he is the one that makes the powerful truth potions eh? Maybe I'll have to see him," said Atsuko.
"Fat chance, didn't you know, he's a thief, the best of the best," said Yusuke as he sat up and reached his jacket and pulled out a bottle of mouthwash and began swishing it around in his mouth. Walking over to the sink he spit it out and drank a glass of water. "Much better, now what do you want to know?"
"What the hell you are damn it!" said Atsuko angrily.
"I'm a Toushin," replied Yusuke simply.
"Damn it, what the hell is a Toushin!" demanded Atsuko.
"How about we play a little game my friend Yoko taught me?" asked Yusuke politely.
"No games!" said Atsuko.
"Then you won't get any more information out of me," said Yusuke simply.
"Fine, how does it work?" said Atsuko.
"It's like twenty question only more specific and dangerous. For each lie you tell, you get harmed, for each truthful answer you come that much closer to figuring out the mystery. Believe me though, I will know if you lie," said Yusuke. "Now my first question is this: how the hell did you do that to me!"
"I'm a witch and went to school and learned how," said Atsuko as Yusuke groaned. "Now what is a Toushin?"
"It's a type of Youkai," said Yusuke. "Where did you go to school?"
"At Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in England," replied Atsuko. "So you're a Youkai, but what are you doing here in my apartment?"
"Looking around," said Yusuke vaguely. "What's your name?"
"Atsuko Urameshi, what's yours?" asked Atsuko cleverly.
"Roizen of the Toushin, son of Lord Raizen of the Northern Lands of the Makai," replied Yusuke telling the truth only a different version of the truth. "Now what do you think of me Atsuko Urameshi?"
"I think you're low life scum that's needs to go back to whatever world you came from!" said Atsuko. "What world are you from anyway?"
"The Ningenkai is where I was born, under the very noses of the Reikai. So if you mean where I was born, then I am where I came from, but if you mean where I've lived most of my life, then I still am where I came from," said Yusuke confusing Atsuko. "Now are you married?"
"No, I once was, but the damn assholes in the Reikai banished him from the Ningenkai, forcing him to leave me and my infant son on our own!" spat Atsuko. "Do you work for the Reikai?"
"Once, but that was before I found out about my heritage. I had a life I tried to lead with my girlfriend, but every time we tried to have a date, that asshole Koenma would have a case for me, forcing me to leave her at the restaurant, movies, store, you name it. Believe me Atsuko Urameshi I have as much love for the Reikai as you do. Though I was able to punch Koenma once during a deadly case, where he tried to interfere," said Yusuke as an after thought causing Atsuko to smirk at the thought. "Now what do you think of me?"
"I think I may have misjudged you somewhat. Anyone who would punch a member of the Reikai Royalty is okay with me. So what did you do to get the Youkai and Reikai to hate you?" asked Atsuko.
"What makes you think the Youkai hate me?" questioned Yusuke.
"You were a Tantei and they hate Tantei's, especially the ones that work for the Reikai," said Atsuko.
"I was the Youkai boogeyman. I was what made the Youkai quiver in fear. I was respected, but hated at the same time, especially after I became stronger," said Yusuke. "Now what's this about a son? I don't see him around and from what I heard he's not going to be either."
"My son Yusuke Urameshi, all around delinquent, thug, and a bit of a pervert, but very strong, loyal, and extremely protective of those he cared about. He always got into a fight with a boy named Kuwabara and won every fight hands down. He made other friends, one Suichi Minamino, a very intelligent and wise boy. A strange boy who liked black and was very anti-social, I believe his name was Hiei. A young cheerful girl, who at the time I thought he was dating, named Botan, who also just happened to save his life from when he got into a serious fight and nearly got killed. He also befriended a girl who had a bad experience with some men who tired to kidnap her, but Yusuke interjected and saved her, very polite and friendly. He disappeared two years ago without a trace as to where he went, except that he found his father," said Atsuko who was on the verge of starting to cry.
"I'm sorry to hear that," replied Yusuke solemnly. "It's your question."
"Have you seen him?" asked Atsuko showing him a picture of himself.
"Yeah, he found his old man, but he died not to long ago. He set out to explore the area he was in and maybe make some new friends," said Yusuke. "That's enough for now, I'll be going now."
"No! You broke into my apartment and you're going to jail!" said Atsuko.
"Please, I'm a Superior S-class Youkai! I'm the strongest Youkai in the entire Makai, Reikai, and Ningenkai," said Yusuke. "Do you honestly think the police can hold me?"
"They can try," said Atsuko defiantly.
"MOM, YOU ARE GETTING ON MY NERVES!" snapped Yusuke in the Youkai tongue.
"I know that language, but where? Where have I heard it before?" said Atsuko more to herself than to Yusuke who had paled.
"Damn it!" said Yusuke as he grabbed one of his hair ties, pulled his hair back, and tied it back to keep it out of his face.
"That was the Youkai tongue! I didn't understand it all, but I did understand: getting on my nerves. So I'm annoying you little Toushin?" asked Atsuko tauntingly.
"Whatever, I'm leaving. The next time I come across Urameshi, I'll tell him what a bitch you've become. He spoke highly of you, even with your past escapades. He spoke very highly of you Atsuko Black Urameshi," said Yusuke as he walked to the front door but was stopped by Atsuko grabbing his arm.
"How did you know my full name? I only old Yusuke and had him swear to never tell anybody or I would disown him!" said Atsuko angrily.
"Let go of me wench! You're lucky Koenma's anti-human hunting laws protect you! I may not care for the little bastard, but I do care when someone threatens my friends, emotionally, physically, or mentally! Go ahead and disown your only son, you will never see him again if this how you truly are!" snapped Yusuke angrily as Atsuko stepped back in surprise at the flash of anger and hurt she saw in his eyes.
Moving out the door he jumped over the edge and landed on the ground easily enough and started walking away. He never knew his mother could be such a bitch, even when he dropped hints in their conversation earlier. He was ashamed to be her son at the moment and knew he would need a new identity. Making his way into the park he sat down at his favorite spot and began to wonder about his future. If Keiko had finally moved on and found someone, if he would ever find someone who would care for him like he wished was possible.
-
Meanwhile at the apartment Atsuko had pulled a glass out of the cupboard and a bottle of booze she kept for cooking. She poured herself a glass as her hands shook slightly. When there was a knock at the door she called that it was open and lifted the glass to take a drink when a book bag came flying across the room and knocked the glass out of her hand. Shattering it on the floor and spilling its contents.
"Atsuko, you said you wouldn't drink again!" said Keiko as she stormed into the kitchen angrily and cleaned up the mess, while Atsuko sat down in a chair and started crying. "Atsuko, are you okay?"
"Oh, Keiko, Yusuke was here, but I didn't recognize him at all. He's changed so much, physically, emotionally, mentally, he's matured so much, and I accuse him of being a thief and threatened to disown him if he ever told anyone my full name. His eyes,Keiko, they were so cold when I said that. Hurt, anger, pity, and a deep loathing is what I saw," cried Atsuko as Keiko tried to comfort the older woman.
"It's okay Atsuko. This is Yusuke we're talking about here! He'll forgive you," said Keiko softly.
"He won't he's not completely human anymore, his father's blood in his veins has been awakened. He's a hanyou now and his father's son, his father took many things seriously and so does Yusuke. I'm sure right now he probably hates me," said Atsuko.
"Maybe, he's mad at you, but don't forget he's your son too! He has your blood in him as well as his father's blood. He'll forgive you, or he won't be able to live with himself. He may have changed, but deep down he's still his same old self. Maybe I can get him to talk to you again, explain to him what's in been like for you," said Keiko.
"He knows Keiko, he's knows the pain I've gone through, because he has gone through it as well. The last time we saw each other before he disappeared was right before I quit drinking. I wasn't quite drunk enough to forget everything from the night before, when we got into an argument about him going to find his father. I said some nasty things to him and he said the one thing that hurt me the most Keiko and meant it. He told me I was a worthless, no good mother, who just drinks her life away because she pities herself. He said that he hated me and held no love for me anymore, that he was ashamed to be my son, ashamed of me and himself for even being related to me. I told him in response that I felt the same way and that he could dieagain and I wouldn't care. I remember seeing the look of shock across his face as I walked towards him to yell at him so more. That's when he punched me and sent me flying across the room," said Atsuko.
"Yusuke did that to you!" said Keiko shocked that Yusuke could do that to his own mother, his own family.
"I can't say that I blame him either, he was right and I knew it, but didn't want to admit it. When I told him he could die again and that I wouldn't care it sent him over the edge of his self control, he hated me and meant to hit me like he did," said Atsuko as she starting crying again.
"It sounds to me that you both said things that neither of you really meant to say. But you do love him and you would care if he died again," said Keiko as Atsuko nodded her acknowledgement. "Does he know that you're a witch?"
"Yes, I used a stunning spell on him and restrained him, beforehe found out,to the chair with much rope and wire. He broke all of it off him easily, but not before I dumped a bottle of Veritaserum down his throat and he was able to withstand its effects. He said someone named Yoko made stronger truth potions," said Atsuko.
"No way, he was able to withstand its effects! I can just imagine him swearing about how it tastes," said Keiko giggling, bringing a smile to Atsuko's face.
"Yes, he said it tasted awful and after threatening him with another dosage, he complied and we played a game of twenty questions, the Youkai version," said Atsuko.
"Yeah and the stuff tastes like shit!" said Yusuke as he walked through the door.
"How long have you been there!" demanded Keiko.
"Don't go making demands Keiko! You might find yourself on the receiving end of my short temper!" snapped Yusuke as Keiko shut up. "As for you mother I forgave you along time ago and I forgive you again. I merely came here to make amends with you. I felt very guilty for a long time about what I said and did to you mother. When I told Raizen, he beat the living hell out of me. He was furious with me for saying those things to you and what I did to you. He's says he still loves you and wishes he could be here for you right now. Hell, maybe one day I'll take you to see his ghost."
"You actually believe in ghosts!" said Keiko.
"I was a ghost remember! I've been one and I've seen a lot of shit in the three worlds that you wouldn't even begin to believe. You might Keiko. You sat with Youkai t the Dark Tournament, when I was till training to be Genkai's heir. Now I have a question for you mother dear, how come part of my memories are blocked off?" asked Yusuke.
"It's a memory charm. It's designed to block knowledge and memories. When we moved out of the Wizarding World and to here, I put it on you after teaching you everything I knew and after your uncle taught you everything you knew," said Atsuko.
"Uncle?" asked Yusuke curiously as Atsuko nodded and muttered an incantation and removed the memory charm, causing all of Yusuke's memories to come flooding back to him in an instant. "Whoa, I'm a wizard?"
"Yes, I had acquired a license and permit to teach you magic, before you were ten years old. When your letter for Hogwarts came, I replied to the headmaster, explaining that you were spending time with your friends at a Muggle School. When you were ready I would remove the memory charm and that you would get your letter and go," said Atsuko ashamed of herself.
"You did this to protect me, huh?" said Yusuke.
"Partially, because of who your father was, the Ministry of Magic wanted to use you as a weapon when you graduated Hogwarts. Your father was furious and nearly destroyed the Ministry, causing the Reikai to banish him; it was Koenma who banished him back to his birth place," said Atsuko with clear disgust when she said Koenma's name.
"Where is this letter at? Though I can see why Enma wanted to have me killed," said Yusuke as he waited for his mother to get the letter.
"Enma wanted to have you killed? Why?" asked Atsuko.
"Because he was trying to prevent my Youkai blood from awakening and because I was the son of Raizen. Needless to say Koenma defended me, but we didn't actually get along afterwards. I punched him for interfering with my affairs and we've been on bad terms since," said Yusuke as he opened the letter she had handed him while the spoke.

Yusuke looked at his mother and smirked as she smiled at him sincerely. "You know I think I can forget about all past problems we have with each other and let bygone's be bygone's. How about you?" said Yusuke as he extended his hand.
"Deal," said Atsuko smiling brightly. "Now, why don't we make you a wand of your own. The only problem is there is no wood strong enough for you to use."
"Let me give a friend a call, he's an expert with plants," said Yusuke as he got on the phone and called Kurama's home.
-
"Hello?" asked a woman.
"Hi, is Suichi home?" asked Yusuke curiously.
"May I ask who this is?" asked the woman curiously.
"I'm a friend of Suichi's from school, is this his mother?" asked Yusuke.
"Yes," replied Kurama's mother.
"We met, when you were in the hospital, about two and a half years go," said Yusuke.
"Oh, Yusuke, it's nice to hear from you, how have you been?" asked Shiori.
"Good, I've been living with my father, may I speak with Suichi?" said Yusuke.
"One moment please…"
"Hello?" asked a male voice.
"Suichi Minamino?" asked Yusuke.
"Yes," replied the male voice.
"Kurama?" asked Yusuke.
"What do you want Yusuke?" asked Kurama angrily.
"What did I do this time Kurama?" asked Yusuke equally angrily.
"You have Koenma breathing down my neck! Why did you tell him, that I regained all knowledge and memories as Yoko!" demanded Kurama.
"I didn't tell him anything! I haven't been in contact with Koenma, since I punched him! You know as well as I do that Koenma wants his infamous Reikai Tantei back together, so he can control our lives! Now Kurama, I need your help!" said Yusuke.
"Then if you didn't ell him, who did?" said Kurama.
"He tricked you into telling him! He's been reading up on how to trick a Kitsune. Now can you get over here to my place and help me out!" said Yusuke.
"I'll be right over and I apologize, Yusuke. If you here from Botan about Koenma being tied up by plants, don't blame me," said Kurama with a hint of what he was going to do to Koenma.
"Be sure to be ready to grow some Makai wood, strong enough to withstand a Superior S-class Toushin in a total and complete rage," said Yusuke.
"I'll ask why when I arrive," said Kurama as he hung up.
-
"Yusuke, why did you call Suichi?" asked Keiko.
"I called Suichi because he's a friend, who has as much dislike for Koenma as I do, if not more. He is also the one that can grow the wood needed to help. Now Keiko have you seen Puu anywhere?" asked Yusuke.
"Oh! Puu was taken by Botan into the Reikai, she said that's where you were last seen. Thought he last time I saw her, she said that Puu attacked Koenma and nearly made him bald. She said that she had to literally drag Puu out of his office and that alter Koenma had Puu locked into a cage and dropped into a Maximum Security Reikai Prison," said Keiko as Yusuke's eyes narrowed angrily.
"Detective," said a voice behind Yusuke.
"Hiei," replied Yusuke.
"I believe this Spirit Beast belongs to you," said Hiei as Puu flapped its massive wings and landed on Yusuke's shoulder. "Koenma believes that Puu was executed, by being dropped into a lava pit in the Reikai. We're even now."
"Yes, we're even, but we're still allies," said Yusuke as he extended his hand to Hiei, who clasped his hand against Yusuke wrist, with Yusuke doing the same to Hiei. "The next time we meet and have enough time, we will spar and see who wins."
"Agreed, I look forward to beating you," said Hiei as he left, just as Kurama entered breathing roughly.
"You run the entire way Kurama?" asked Yusuke.
"Yes, my step-brother wanted me to try on a dress, so he and his girlfriend could finish their work for a class. I refused, telling him I had a previous engagement, besides even Yoko refused to wear the dress," said Kurama smirking. "Now what you need is dragon wood. Only dragons have ever been able to stand up to Toushin's and beat them or wound them enough to retreat to safety. I have a seed for some dragon wood with me right now. You're lucky Yusuke that I need more dragon wood seeds."
"Thanks. Now let it grow to its prime, where it is perfect for standing up against a Toushin in his prime, in a full fledged furious rage, and a Superior S-class too," said Yusuke as Kurama nodded and did so until the wood was about as thick as Yusuke's arms, but longer than his hair.
Kurama carefully took one of the larger branches off from the main piece and handed it to Yusuke, after he collected its seeds. Collecting the rest of the seeds he saw Keiko and Atsuko staring at him from behind Yusuke.
"You're Yoko!" said Atsuko.
"Technically yes, yet no, Yoko is apart of me yes, but I am Kurama, the one that keeps Yoko in line. Now you are a witch and so are you Keiko, I take it you wish for my truth potion?" asked Kurama slyly as he noticed the empty bottles on the counter.
"Yes, how much?" asked Atsuko.
"Their not for sale, I'm only giving you my freshest bottle, because you are Yusuke's mother and hate Koenma as much as I do. One drop will work like four drops of Veritaserum does. Two drops could be very unhealthy and will cause the person it's used on to have a stomach ache for about a month, along with a splitting headache. Three drops can be potentially dangerous, it will cause the person to tell more than he or she or it should tell and the side effects will be a stomach ache, upset stomach, major head ache, and lots of dizziness. Now four drops can be potentially lethal after it's worked its way through his or her or its system and end of killing them in the process. I would suggest only two drops at the most and half a drop at the least," said Kurama sternly. "So you know this potion is called Venomaserum, it is quite rare, so use it wisely and as a last resort only."
Later that night Atsuko walked Yusuke through the ceremony to create his wand, using a tail feather from Puu and one of his own hairs he let his youki and reiki flow into the wood to fuse the hair and feather into as its core. Then he recited the incantation and connected the handle using his youki and reiki once again, creating a wand, but not a complete one. After connecting the handle he recited the next incantation and let his youki, reiki, and magic flow into the one binding it to him and only him, and at the same time infusing its double core into the wand completely with his reiki, youki and magic signatures all mixed together to create a complete, special, and unique wand. He let the wand stand for a couple of hours to let it harden and cool, so he didn't break it when he went to use it.
The Next Day
Atsuko had sent Puu to deliver a message to the headmaster of Hogwarts that Yusuke was ready to attend and needed to attend or the results could be disastrous. In a few hours time, Puu arrived back with an invitation and everything needed to get to England and get his school supplies. Atsuko also agreed to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, since that was what she specialized in, along with the Light and Grey Arts.
"Mom, you mentioned an uncle," said Yusuke.
"Yes your Uncle Sirius. He was convicted as a felon for murder, when he didn't do anything, Wormtail got away. He was pronounced dead last year," said Atsuko.
"Dang, I really wanted to meet him," said Yusuke as they walked to the nearest Pub for Wizards and Witches in Sarakaishi.
When they walked in, everyone turned to stare at them, who were then met by a glare that made half of them pale and turn away.
"Atsuko Urameshi, it's been a while, how is your husband?" asked the inn keeper.
"He was banished by the asshole and then he died a couple of years ago," said Atsuko.
"Sorry to hear that. Who might this gent be?" asked the inn keeper winking at Keiko.
"This is my son Yusuke Urameshi," said Atsuko, causing half the pub to stare at Yusuke.
"If they keep staring at me, then I might just decide to have a battle royal!" said Yusuke, causing everyone to go back to their business.
"Yep, definitely Raizen's son, only he could get people to turn away so quickly. You have definitely inherited his temper and ability to get what you want out of people that are annoying you," said the inn keeper as he went back to his business after Atsuko paid him a galleon to keep quite.
"Now Yusuke, just do as Keiko does," said Atsuko as Keiko grabbed a handful of the powder threw it into the fire and stepped into it and yelled Diagon Alley.
Yusuke and Atsuko followed soon after and saw Keiko waiting for them by a Goblin who seemed to have been waiting for them, long before they arrived. Yusuke followed his mother as they walked over to the Goblin who nodded and motioned for them to follow him as they were led to a waiting room.
"Drakthorn will see you in a few minutes," said the Goblin as he walked off.
A few minutes later, turned out to be half an hour, which was making Yusuke cranky. And when Yusuke gets cranky, he gets angry, which means a short temper that could snap at any given moment. Shortly after half an hour had passed another Goblin walked out of the office and motioned for them to follow him inside.
"Mrs. Urameshi," said the Goblin.
"Drakthorn," replied Atsuko.
"What can I do for you today madam?" asked Drakthorn curiously.
"I wish to know the contents of vault three-two-nine," said Atsuko as the Goblin gave her a dark look.
"Vault three-two-nine you say?" asked Drakthorn making sure he heard correctly.
"Yes," said Atsuko.
"That vault can only be opened by Lord Raizen or his heir. We Goblin's have no knowledge as to what is inside it. Lord Raizen left instructions that should either you or his heir ask about its contents that you be given this specially sealed envelope and this specially made key," said Drakthorn. "The Minister of Magic has put it upon us that he should immediately be told when this vault is asked about by anyone. He also said to inform him if this vault is ever opened by someone."
"I'm sure Raizen left instructions that you were not to do this and that if you followed his instructions you would be rewarded for your services in following his directions," replied Atsuko as Drakthorn nodded.
"He did indeed, so we have told the Minister under Lord Raizen's instructions that only his heir can open this specific vault," said Drakthorn.
"Good, when it is opened, report nothing to the Minister or anybody else. I am leaving you to make the necessary arrangements to have this stricken from the official records the Ministry of Magic looks over," said Atsuko as Drakthorn caught her hint.
"Ah, yes, now it was vault three-two-eight you meant correct?" asked Drakthorn with a smile as Atsuko smiled back and nodded. "My assistant shall take you to the vault."
Atsuko nodded and stood, but Yusuke remained sitting.
"Before my old man died, he told me he left me a vault full of treasures. He said it was vault seven-three-seven-two," said Yusuke as Drakthorn looked at Yusuke carefully.
"Seven-three-seven-two?" questioned Drakthorn.
"Yes," replied Yusuke who now glared at the Goblin, causing Drakthorn to become very nervous and uneasy.
"On second thought, I will take you personally," said Drakthorn as Yusuke nodded and Drakthorn led the way.
One Hour Later
They arrived at vault three-two-nine, inside was a collection of very rare books about Toushin and the Makai. There were also many gems, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, you name it, along with much pure gold, silver, and bronze in brick form, weighing about twenty pounds each. Atsuko used her wand to shrink about, twenty gold, silver, and bronze bricks to fit her money pouch, as she also grab a handful of gems. Afterwards they were taken to the deepest depths of Gringotts vaults, when they arrived at vault seven-three-seven-two Yusuke opened it and inside was more riches than they could believe. There were so many riches inside the vault it was unbelievable, gold, silver, bronze, gems, muggle, and Wizarding money, that a spell was what held it all in place. Yusuke filled two money bags with Wizarding money and then shut the vault door and sealed it again, but this time he also sealed with his reiki, enabling that nobody else but him and his descendants would be able to get into the vault, even if they had youki.
"Let's go, I'm done here, but make sure that nobody knows about this vault or else I will personally see to it that your life will be miserable in every way possible," said Yusuke as Drakthorn nodded and they were on their way up to the surface.
One Hour Later (Again)
Yusuke, Keiko, and Atsuko left Gringotts and headed towards Ollivanders Wand Shop. When they stepped threw, Ollivander immediately greeted the three of them.
"Well now, this is quite a surprise, Atsuko Urameshi. Twelve inches, dragon heartstring, made of cedar, quite firm," said Ollivander.
"Exactly, I'm here to get my wand appraised and have it fine tuned if possible. It's been a bit off lately," said Atsuko.
"Yes, I suppose it would be with where you live. The different energies mixing and separating, fighting and joining each other, would throw off a wand not tuned to flow with the different energies. Yes, here you are, all done, next time bring it in before another two decades pass," said Ollivander as he looked at Keiko. "Keiko Ukimura, I hear about what Malfoy did to your wand. A shame really, one of my best pieces of work too. Thirteen inches, unicorn hair, made of willow, quite flexible, excellent for charms."
"Yes sir, unfortunately I need a new one. Is there anyway to fix it?" asked Keiko.
"I'm afraid if there is, I don't know how. I have never had to fix a wand as damaged as yours is. But, perhaps we can get you a wand just as good or even better," said Ollivander as he disappeared for a moment and came back with a couple of boxes. "Try this one, eleven inches, unicorn hair, made from maple wood, quite flexible, yet firm, perfect for jinxes."
Keiko waved it and a vase shattered and Ollivander snatched it out of her hand. After another three dozen boxes, Ollivander seemed more pleased that frustrated. Yusuke on the other hand was bored and looked at the boxes. He saw a unique looking box that caught his eye, it seemed to have been sitting there for a very long time. Ollivander looked back and saw where Yusuke was looking and pondered for a moment.
"Yes, it could work," mumbled Ollivander as he grabbed the box and brought it down for Keiko to try. Keiko waved it and a bright light surrounded her and Ollivanders smile faded. "Curious, that wand is one of a kind, the only one of its kind that I have ever made. Do you know what is so unique about that wand in your hand?"
"No, what sir?" asked Keiko.
"That wand was made from a very rare wood called dragon wood, but just any dragon wood. This dragon wood is nearly a thousand years old, from long before my time. Its core is a piece of hair from a thousand year old Toushin. I had helped him out and in return he gave me a piece of his hair and some dragon wood. He told me that one day I would sell it and that the one who the wand reacted to would do great things," said Ollivander. "This Toushin was very wise and powerful, but was remarkable about it the most was that he was also very kind and loyal, protective of those he cared about. This is very rare in a Toushin, very rare."
"I see did you happen to get his name?" asked Keiko.
"Reizen," said Ollivander, causing Yusuke's eyes to dart straight at Ollivander. "Now this wand is sixteen inches long, very thick and very firm, excellent for everything. Now young man, are you here for a wand too?"
"I have a wand," said Yusuke revealing his wand as he handed it to Ollivander who studied it very carefully.
"Unique this one is, very unique, dragon wood, but very primed dragon wood, at least a thousand years old as well. A double core, a Toushin hair and a type of bird feather," said Ollivander.
"That would be a Spirit Beast Feather," said Yusuke.
"Ah, indeed and it is connected to the Toushin no doubt, but not an ordinary Toushin, no," said Ollivander as he studied it more. "A hanyou Toushin, yes, you used your own hair, with your Spirit Beast's feather, to make it only yours to use. Very clever and very wise that was."
"Thank you," said Yusuke as Ollivander handed Yusuke is wand back.
"Now, Miss Ukimura that will be twenty galleons, since that wand is so special and unique," said Ollivander as he found twenty galleons in his hand as Yusuke tied his money bag. "Hopefully the next time we meet it won't be under such conditions as a new wand, but merely a check up."
They left the shop and made their way over to Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions, where Yusuke got his robes. After paying for his robes he made his over to Flourish and Blotts for his books, where his mother helped him get the best books and all books on the Makai and Youkai, and especially about Toushin. After they finished there Yusuke made his way over to the pet store bought a small elemental kitten the runt of the litter. After that Yusuke made his way to where their seemed to be a long line of customers trying to get into the store. Having no patience for waiting he glared people away from him, allowing him to get into the store easier. Nobody wanted to mess with him, especially from the way he glared at you, it was worse than the Malfoy's, which was amazing.
'What's so great about this place?' thought Yusuke as he looked around.
"Thanks, come again!" said a voice. "Whoa! Fred, take a look at that guy! Everyone seems to be avoiding him and look at his wild hair!"
"I see him George, let's go introduce ourselves," said Fred as the two went over to Yusuke. "Hello, welcome to Weasley's Wizards Wheezes. I'm Fred Weasley and this is George Weasley."
"Or am I Fred Weasley and him George Weasley," said George as Yusuke grabbed the two by the collar of their robes and lifter them off the floor.
"I'll tell you once and only once, I don't like people playing mind games with me. The last person who did never wanted to see me again after what I did to him. Now is this understood you tow?" said Yusuke as the two Weasley twins looked at each other and then back to Yusuke and nodded in agreement. "Good, now if you could do me a favor, I need to know who to avoid and who not to avoid at Hogwarts."
"Um, can you put us down please?" asked Fred nicely as Yusuke dropped the two.
"Well, um right, basically just avoid anyone in Slytherin and Professor Snape, if you can," said George as he and Fred stood up.
"Thanks, now do you have anything I can use to make somebody's life a living hell?" asked Yusuke with a smirk as the twins looked at each and smirked.
"How much of a living hell are we talking about?" asked Fred curiously.
"How about enough that they want to just quit bothering everyone they don't like," said Yusuke with another smirk.
"Sorry mate, but we don't have anything that serious, but thanks for the idea! Because of this we're giving you a Super Gift Bag at half price! Only six Galleons," said George as Yusuke opened his money bag and removed six galleons.
"Whoa! Where'd you get that kind of money!" said Fred as George went and got the gift bag.
"My old man left it to me," said Yusuke as Fred shut up and didn't press any further.
"You new at Hogwarts or a transfer student?" asked George. "We haven't seen you around here before?"
"I was taught privately and because of my mother's job, I'm going to Hogwarts this year," said Yusuke.
"You know, you're probably going to be in the sixth year," said Fred.
"Thanks, I'll avoid Slytherin, since it seems that nobody likes it," said Yusuke as he walked out with his gift bag and everyone made a path for him to leave.
-
When Yusuke arrived at the Quidditch Store, he saw Keiko waiting for him.
"Hey Yusuke, Atsuko said she'd meet us in the Leaky Cauldron. Meanwhile I'm to help you get a broom," said Keiko as they looked in the window and saw a new broom.
-
THE DARKFORCE

Price upon request.
-
"Wow, that's better than my Cleansweep!" said Keiko.
"Hmm, it says that they are extremely limited," said Yusuke. "Let's see how much they are Keiko."
Stepping inside he went to the shopkeeper, who ignored him as he read the paper. Coughing slightly, the man continued to ignore Yusuke, until he smashed his fist onto the counter, splintering it. This caught the man's attention as he looked at Yusuke's fist and the counter and decided to help him before the fist connected with him.
"Can I help you?" asked the shopkeeper nervously.
"How much for a Darkforce?" asked Yusuke.
"Three hundred galleons each, wish to purchase one?" asked the shopkeeper.
"No, I wish to purchase two and two of the best Quidditch Supplies you have in stock," said Yusuke as the shopkeeper nodded and went into the back and returned carrying two brooks in protective cases and then went and got two of all the best Quidditch supplies he had in stock, though he decided to give the gut a bit of a discount and got two of the best supplies he had in stock for males and for females.
"Okay, now that will be a thousand galleons," said the shopkeeper as Yusuke handed him a gold brick that was worth eleven hundred galleons.
"Enough?" asked Yusuke.
"Enough? This is worth eleven hundred galleons! It's more than enough!" said the shopkeeper as he gave Yusuke his change and charmed everything to a smaller size to fit in their luggage as Yusuke and Keiko left.
"Yusuke, why did you get to brooms?" asked Keiko curiously.
"Because ones for you. Consider it part of your birthday present early, along with all the supplies for females," said Yusuke as Keiko kissed him on the cheek happily. "Hey Keiko, you forgot one."
"Really, what?" asked Keiko curiously.
"Here," said Yusuke as he handed her a small white kitten with light blue highlights on its back and head.
"Oh Yusuke, she's beautiful!" said Keiko as she petted the kitten softly. "I'm going to call her Jemu, just because she's so beautiful."
The kitten purred in Keiko's arms as Yusuke smiled and said, "Yeah, she's beautiful, but not as beautiful as you are Keiko."
Keiko blushed as Yusuke kissed her gently on the lips and then walked inside, leaving Keiko to follow behind. Once inside they ate dinner, sat around and talked before they finally went to bed, where all Keiko could d was think about the kiss Yusuke gave her.

A/N: Well that's it for the first chapter and my first attempt at an YYH/HP crossover. I hope you like it and give me some pointers. I'm trying to focus this mainly around Yusuke and Keiko, along with a couple of others that have yet to make an appearance. Well here is a little poll and a couple of questions for everyone:
What did you think of this chapter?
Should I just give up on this story?
What should the pairings be? You decide!
Should Yusuke meet Harry and co.?
Well that's it for now, hope you like reading it, so long for now.
