Author's Note: Good morning wonderful readers! I hope you enjoy this next chapter.

Disclaimer: Still don't own HP or make any money. Still self-beta'd.

Warning: Slash. Harry/OMC pairing.

Sorry for the confusion with the Japanese. NONE of the new characters are from any fandom. They are all OCs using names of people I know personally or thought of. This is not a crossover with any other fandom. Don't think of the Japanese use as if the characters were speaking Japanese, see it as a new language that only they know. I used it for convenience sake not because they are from Japan. I hope this helps clear up some confusion.

"…." = speaking

'….' = thinking or a message

Word = Japanese that will be translated below

Will Harry learn more about this group? Will he learn the name of the man who so boldly kissed him? Will he figure out what is going on with his body? Read below to find out.

Chapter 2

Morning saw Harry exiting the common room before most students were up. He wanted to have a chance to enjoy the lake while the others spent their Saturday morning sleeping. With how early it was only the most dedicated Ravenclaws would be up studying in the library and maybe a Quidditch team on the pitch for early morning practice; but most would take this time to make up for lost sleep from over the week of classes.

"Good morning Harry." Harry spun around to find Minato leaning against the wall to the left of the portrait. This time the hood of his violet robe was down showing that he had short brown hair with bangs that stopped just above his brown eyes.

"Morning. Minato, right?"

"Seikai."

"Huh?"

"Correct. In a hurry somewhere?"

"I was just going for a walk before too many students wake up. Why?"

"Perfect. Another message was left for you. 'Meet me at the lake.' I'm to take you if you wish to go."

"Alright. That's where I planned to go anyways." Harry started walking down the hall silently enjoying the quiet of the morning. Both walked in silence long enough that Harry could almost pretend to be walking alone. Every now and then he would brush his hand along the wall and window sills as they passed. On each brush Harry could feel a small tingle in his finger tips from the magic of the castle. On the 5th floor Minato waved his hands in a complex motion before tossing a globe of midnight blue light down the hall they were passing.

"What was that?" Harry asked curious to what he did, stopping to watch as the globe seemed to bounce in the air as it moved along.

"I was just sending a note saying I was taking you to the lake. That's all."

"I've never seen anyone do that before. What spell was it?"

"It was not a spell taught in wizarding schools and truthfully not really a spell. The closest spell wizards have to it would be the patronus. You can send spoken messages through that spell. This however, is just a ball of magic. You create it while thinking of a thought. The globe of light passes on what you are trying to convey." Minato gently guided Harry into moving again. They were half way down a set of stairs when Harry spoke up again.

"If there is no spoken message attached, as a receiver, how do you know what the message is?"

"It's like an emotional memory almost. The one I sent will give the receiver the feeling of acceptance."

"But how does it know who to go to or who it is from?"

"Magic of course." Minato shot a grin over at Harry who looked unimpressed. "It carries my magical signature, which made the color of the globe blue, and when forming it you also connect it to who the receiver is. Then, as long as they are in the direction you toss it in they will receive it. It works on magic, knowing where someone is, and understanding emotions. The message was to meet at the lake. If you had said no the orb would convey that information."

"Is that something anyone can learn?"

"It's a rather specialized form of magic that can only be taught by and to a select group." As they stepped out of the entry doors a pale red globe came bouncing after them, circled Minato once, and then floated in the air just before him.

"And here is another." Minato reached out a hand to touch the globe. "Ah, he is sending his thanks for the message. He will join you soon, probably just needs to pick up something."

"You got all of that from a touch?" Minato and Harry continued on to the lake.

"From a touch and the fact I know him well."

"How do you know him?"

"I'm guard. It's my job to know him." Harry smiled to himself at having his idea confirmed.

"Does that mean he's someone super important?"

"In a way." Minato hedged. Once they reached the docks Harry turned to his right and started walking down the bank.

"There are some rocks ahead that are great for sitting and watching the lake from."

"Lead on." Minato smiled while looking out at the water. Not too much further down Harry climbed up onto one of the rocks and sat looking at the lake. Minato stayed on the ground but noticed that the location Harry chose was strategically blocked by trees from the front of the castle, creating a small pocket to hide in for privacy. Minato nodded to himself wondering if Harry chose this location purposefully for this meeting because of last night or if this is where he always goes to for privacy.

Just as Minato went to voice his thoughts out loud he noticed their missing third come down the path towards them. Three guards split off into the trees to watch the far end of the path. With a nod of his head Minato faded into the trees behind Harry's seated position to keep watch over the area to insure their privacy.

"It seems I'm getting into a habit of arriving to our meetings after you already do koi." Harry suddenly found himself trapped within a pair of crimson clad arms hugging him from behind.

"And you're the one that calls them." Harry quipped back leaning into the body behind him bringing up a hand to rest on the arms crossed in front of him.

"Indeed I do." Was the response before Harry felt lips against his neck slowly kissing their way up. Harry's breath caught as he went to turn his head to face the man. However, before he could finish turning his lips were caught in another daze inducing kiss like the night before. The kiss broke shortly after but still left Harry dazed, moaning in disappointment, and his body yearning for something more.

"There's a sound I won't mind hearing more of koi." He grinned, eyes flashing green before settling onto a mix of blue with spears of green throughout. "Are you having a good morning so far?"

"Yah," seemed slip unbidden from Harry's lips.

"I hope you haven't eaten yet. I'd thought we could relax and have breakfast out here." The man drew Harry's attention to the basket sitting next to him on the rock. "Hungry?"

"Ah….yes, sure. Food would be fine." Harry shook his head like he was trying to remove cobwebs. He frowned at the bereft feeling that overcame him as the arms moved from around him to set out the food in the basket. Harry caught the man's eyes, this time watching them change from the mix of blue and green to brown in color, and blurted out.

"You've kissed me three times now and have yet to tell me your name." The brown eyes grew wide and suddenly changed to gold.

"I haven't?"

"No." Harry picked up an apple and began to eat.

"I could have sworn I did. No matter. I am Ryosuke."

"Ryosuke." Harry murmured to himself glancing out over the lake again.

"Have you figured out my eyes yet?" Ryosuke asked bringing Harry's attention back to him.

"No I was rather distracted." Harry's cheeks warmed as he looked out over the lake, missing the self-satisfied smile that spread across Ryosuke's face.

"Come now. Don't tell me you don't have any guesses." Ryosuke leaned closer to Harry while munching on a bunch of grapes.

"Um. Blue is normal?"

"Normal?"

"Well, your everyday, original color."

"Not quite," Ryosuke chuckled. "What about another color?"

"I don't know, there are many possibilities. Can't you just tell me?"

"Where would be the fun in that? Think of it like an adventure. Every time you get a color correct you'll get a reward."

"What's the reward?"

"Believe me you won't complain if the time since we met is any indication. Now eat the food I brought for you." Ryosuke smiled brightly and pushed the basket of food closer to Harry.

"When will you tell me why you are here?" This time Harry picked up a breakfast sandwich to munch on.

"Your Headmaster is planning to announce us at dinner. Any other questions this morning?"

"Last night you said that the changing color was a part of what you are. Does that mean you aren't human?"

"I'm surprised you remember. Yes, we are not human."

"What are you then?"

"We are a humanoid creature called Joukriger and the only easy way to tell us from humans is our eyes."

"Are there any other differences?" Harry asked feeling a bit exasperated.

"Of course. However, a deeper discussion I think is better kept for another time. If you learn everything now you might disappear on me."

"I wouldn't. I'm too drawn to you." Harry slammed a hand over his mouth at that, looking wide-eyed at Ryosuke. Ryosuke chuckled loudly and snaked an arm around Harry's back.

"Drawn to me are you? It is just me or all of us?" Blue eyes stared back from a grinning face. Harry's face flushed before his eyes narrowed.

"Are you making fun of me? Is that why won't you give me a straight answer?"

"That would be because I'm not straight." Ryosuke got out before Harry pushed him away and scrambled off of the rock.

"Fine. If you won't give a straight answer I'll go to someone else." He called back as he stomped back to the castle. Ryosuke blinked after him in shock before turning golden eyes to his left to find brown staring up at him.

"That was not a wise move kouteishi." Minato glanced in the direction Harry ran. "I would suggest leaving your sukidoushi to calm down for a few hours before approaching him again." Ryosuke glowered up at the castle as if it was the building's fault that Harry had run off.

"I hate the rule saying I cannot tell him until he loves me. I know it is to make it easier on the humans but shouldn't they be happy to be mated?"

"Talk to your uncles about this kouteishi that is why they came. Not only to oversee the protection as our generals but to help you through this. Both found their sukidoushi in humans and not other Joukriger, like you. They can help you."

"Fine. I shall leave Harry alone until he approaches me again."

"I'm sure by the time dinner is over tonight he will seek you out. Human mates are drawn to us as you heard him confess. Their magic tells them they are not complete and so will compel them to stay with their Joukriger half until they are mated. He will always come to you."

"I know but after what little the Headmaster revealed to us last night I am tempted to take him away from this place and keep him from all of this. It's why I've been pushier than I would normally be. I want to claim him and take him from all of this. I'm just very relieved that I found him so quickly or I would have spent all of last night looking." After one last look in the direction Harry disappeared to Ryosuke packed up the basket and headed back into the castle followed by Minato and the three other guards that appeared through the trees where they had kept silent watch.

AN:

Anyone want to take a stab at what the eye colors mean? You've seen most of them now.

Thank you to everyone who reviewed, favorited, and/or is following this story. I'm really glad that there is interest in this and I hope I can keep you interested as I continue on.

If there are any mistakes that you notice please let me know in a review. I can't always catch them as I beta my own work.

About the naming of the creature type: it is made up of 2 different languages.

"Jou" is Japanese (情) for emotion, feeling, circumstance, passion, empathy, or facts depending on how it is used. Pronounced like "Joe".

"Kriger" is Danish for warrior. Not sure the exact pronunciation for this.

Together I am using them to mean "Circumstance Warrior"

Koi – (恋) love

Seikai – (正解) correct

Kouteishi – (皇太子) crown prince

Sukidoushi – (好き同士) soul mate
